Following the excitement of the Highland Games there will be an authentic Scottish Ceilidh.

You may well ask, “what is a Ceilidh?”. The English Dictionary defines a ceilidh, from the Gaelic and pronounced kay-lee, as “an informal social gathering, with songs, story-telling, music and dancing”.

The most important thing to know about a ceilidh is that the dances are for everyone to dance to. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never danced before, have two left feet or even three! Everyone is welcome at a ceilidh and you’ll be astonished how hard it is not to end up dancing!

The Aberdeen Highland Games Ceilidh is always a great night out where everyone is welcome, this year’s Ceilidh will include a two-course dinner and light supper, the piping in of and the Address to the Haggis, Old Style and Scottish Country Dancing music, Pipe Band display and Highland Dancers. Pre-purchased tickets are essential and very popular and with limited numbers available don’t delay and risk missing out on this great event.
