FRI 25 & SAT 26 OCTOBER

Bring your friends and show off your spookiest dances at this Halloween celebration with the Ceilidh Liberation Front!

Something wicked this way comes… The Nest Collective have reached beyond the veil and summoned a new ceilidh event for you this October.

Marvel at the stunning halls of Grand Junction as you bewitch your friends with your scariest two-step! Dosie-do and strip-the-willow as we raise our spirits with ghosts and ghouls.

Your host will guide you throughout the evening, and offer insights and reflections on this special time of year celebrated for millennia across different cultures.

This event is a celebration of life, and an honouring of the ancestors. We ask you to raise up your voices and knees in the exalted spirit of the ceilidh!

Open to dancers of all abilities (no experience necessary!)

“Sweat-busting abandon, subverted dances and party tunes”

Time Out

“Taking the traditional ceilidh as its starting point, but ripping up the rule book, souping up the music and subverting the dance moves. No experience is necessary”

Londonist
Open to dancers of all abilities (no experience necessary!)

Dress code: Grand Junction has a no-heels policy for this event. Other than that, there is no strict dress code. Come as splendid as you like!

The Ceilidh Liberation Front is London’s most radical & colourful live band, subverting the lore of Ceilidh with their energetic folk dance regime. They breathe vigour and vitality into the traditional ceilidh, whilst honouring its roots and traditions.

All are welcome at this event – groups, pairs or solo bookings.

There will be a prize of a bottle of whisky for the best outfit!

Join us this October for a ceilidh like no other!
