Ceithir Ceilidh Band

We had a mix of guests who were experienced with ceilidh and guests who had never been to on before. The band made sure that their set accommodated all guests very well. Overall an excellent experience. Huge thanks to the band!”

Jess – Whispering Woods Fayre in Balfron – 2025

“Ceithir were great at our conference dinner – very patient as most delegates had never been to a ceilidh before – great tempo to allow for a rest after the more energetic dances and a superb finish – we’ve had great feedback from our delegates, everyone had a great time. Would definitely recommend Ceithir.”

Kathleen – Conference at the Merchants House of Glasgow – 2025

“We booked Ceithir for our wedding, from booking them to on the day everything was fantastic. We had a ceilidh for around an hour to get everyone up on the dance floor (which worked a real treat) and then had them be our DJ for the rest of the night. To say everyone enjoyed themselves was an understatement, absolute carnage at times (with our wedding guests dancing) but really really fantastic fun! Cant recommend them enough. Punctual, professional and very friendly guys. Thank you so much!!”
