Ceilidhs at The Greenbank are joyful, high-energy community dances led by musicians from the Bristol folk scene and rooted in the spirit of our tunes session.

With live music from two seasoned ceilidh musicians and guest players from our Tuesday sessions, and all dances taught by an expert caller, these evenings are welcoming to absolute beginners and seasoned dancers alike. Come along to learn some brilliant dances, enjoy live folk music, and be part of a warm, supportive community where everyone’s encouraged to join in — whether you want to dance, play, or both.

Take a look below if you’d like to see a little video of what to expect!
