Music · Edinburgh

A live band, a caller who talks you through every dance from scratch, and a room full of people who mostly don't know each other either — this is the easiest way into ceilidh dancing there is. Turn up alone and you'll be swapped into a set within minutes.
It runs weekly, so there's no pressure to catch one specific date, but Tuesday nights at Summerhall are as good an excuse as any to get out and meet people.
