NEW FOR 2013 - THE FRIDAY NIGHT CÉILIDH!

"In modern usage, a céilidh (pronounced KAY lee)
is a traditional Gaelic social gathering,
which usually involves playing
Gaelic folk music and dancing."

- Wikipedia

For the last three years the KVMR Celtic Festival has kicked off on Friday afternoon with our FREE Youth Arts Program which runs from 4:00 to 7:00PM. It's great fun with LOTS of young people (and their dutiful parents) making music and magic in the Oak Grove.

We've decided to keep the fun going with our first ever Friday Night Céilidh. There'll be live music on the Oak Grove Stage along with both dancing in the nearby Cultural Center.

The fun starts at 4:00 with the Youth Arts Program and music and dancing begin at 7:30. An all-star band - The Reel of Seven featuring Deby Benton Grosjean - will play live music for dancing with an experienced caller calling the steps.

Informal jam sessions will be encouraged. There will be food and beverages available for purchase.

Tickets for the Céilidh are $14 for KVMR members and $18 non-member. With Early Bird pricing through May, Céilidh tickets are $10 for members, $14 non-member. (Céilidh is a separate ticket - not included in the Saturday & Sunday ticket price.)


The moon will rise over the Oak Grove
and the Magic of the 2013 KVMR Celtic Festival will begin!
