Photo of Catherine Little Cello Catherine Little Cello "My daughter and I attended your concert. It would be an hounour to have you visit our town (for your next concert). Thanks for giving my daughter and myself a wonderful memory." Based in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia 8th May 2026 Liz T. - "Catherine's Cello" Concert Photo of Harbour City Harbour City "CAMIC had the great pleasure of having Harbour City perform at our annual conference. Not only was the band fantastic, but they played a variety of tunes, from ones themed to the East Coast to familiar tunes from the past. Our guests happily danced until the last set was played" Based in Halifax, Nova Scotia 29th January 2026 Sangita Kamblé - Canadian Association of Mutual Insurance Companies - Annual National Conference Photo of Foot Stompin' Ceilidh Band Foot Stompin' Ceilidh Band "The band were wonderful and so accommodating with our requests for the night which helped to make it just that little bit more special. So many of our guests commented on the fantastic music!" Based in Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom Heather Kennedy Photo of Ted Christopher Ted Christopher "Brilliant night’s entertainment. Ted knows how to play to the crowd and can vary his sets based on who’s there and the crowds response." Based in Stirling, Scotland, United Kingdom Bruce Miller - Party night. Photo of Bob Ferguson Songwriter Bob Ferguson Songwriter "Wonderful entertainer! Bob ‘reads’ the audience and keeps the mood, tempo and volume on point. He provided a wonderful afternoon of music and humour for mum’s 100th!" Based in Lanark, Scotland, United Kingdom 16th May 2026 Julia Edgar - Birthday party Photo of Annasach Ceilidh Band Annasach Ceilidh Band "The Annasach Ceilidh Band made the evening of our wedding in The Netherlands unforgettable, motivating Dutch and French feet alike to dance the Scottish steps. Even my 62-year-old aunt was on her feet all evening and remarked at the end that from now on, she only wants Scottish weddings. The band also dealt very professionally with some unforeseen circumstances, rebooking their own flights when their original flights were cancelled, taking a lot of stress away from us. I will happily recommend them for any wedding or party in Scotland or abroad, and look forward to visiting one of their Ceilidhs in Edinburgh when we next find ourselves there!" Based in Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom Barbara - Wedding

Rates depend on the number of musicians, performance length and whether the band provides a caller to guide dancers through the steps. Most ceilidh bands include a caller as standard, but it is worth confirming when comparing options.

Events that commonly feature ceilidh bands include weddings, Burns Night celebrations, birthday parties, corporate team-building events and festivals. Ceilidh dancing is inclusive and energetic, making it an excellent way to get all guests involved regardless of age or dancing ability.

A ceilidh is a traditional social gathering featuring folk music and group dancing. The ceilidh bands in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada provide lively folk music and typically include a caller who guides guests through each dance. No prior dance experience is needed, as the caller explains every step before the music begins.

Most ceilidh bands need a clear dance floor area large enough for guests to form lines, circles and sets. A space of around 10 by 10 metres works well for most group sizes. The band itself needs a small stage or performance area at one end. It is worth discussing space requirements based on your expected guest numbers.
