Reviews of Irish / Scottish Entertainment available in Winterthur

5/5 from 223 reviews
Photo of The DooLallys The DooLallys "I first witnessed The DooLallys years ago at a kind of impromptu kitchen session. I think deeply soulful is the best way to describe their mix of pipes, strings, and song - seamless switches between O'Carolanesque 18th Century rave style to sweet balladeering, along with true and loving versions of traditional Irish music tunes, all layered with a knowing hedge school poetic sensibility." Based in Bern, Canton of Bern (71 miles from Winterthur) Tim Bradford Photo of pipe major Nick MacVicar pipe major Nick MacVicar "Nick, you're a scholar and a gentleman. Everyone that met you had nothing but good things to say, and you giving us extra time for the city center was really really appreciated. (As was the plaid; legend) We genuinely hope we meet again, your vibe was spectacular. Talk to you soon man. Thanks again" Based in Florence, Tuscany, Italy (285 miles from Winterthur) 29th September 2026 Ciaran & Guilaine - Wedding in Tuscany Photo of Annette Homann Violinist Annette Homann Violinist "I hired Annette to play a few songs for a public marriage proposal. She was great! Not only does she play beautifully, but she was extremely flexible as we worked through the plan—even with the winter weather! I really appreciated how she took a personal interest in the proposal and was genuinely excited for us. It made the whole event unique and special. I HIGHLY recommend Annette for marriage proposals and any other reason someone wants to bring some beautiful violin music into their lives!" Based in Brussels, Brussels Capital, Belgium (304 miles from Winterthur) Jeff Lee - Marriage Proposal Photo of Jennyandthekelts Jennyandthekelts "A devilish rhythm, a galloping melody and a captivating voice" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region, France (308 miles from Winterthur) 15th July 2026 Denis Popper music mag - Pop celtic contemporary artist Photo of Owen's Friends Owen's Friends "Overall we had a very good experience in difficult conditions. The caller handled inexperienced participants, hot weather, and minor technical challenges to deliver an enjoyable experience for all, including child-friendly dances. I recommend this band." Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region, France (308 miles from Winterthur) 14th July 2026 James - Wedding Photo of Harp - Amelia Tokarska Harp - Amelia Tokarska "Amelia played the harp during our corporate reception, adding an elegant touch to the evening. Her music created a welcoming atmosphere as guests arrived and enjoyed their drinks. We particularly appreciated how the live performance complemented the event while allowing conversation to flow comfortably. We would happily recommend Amelia for corporate events and private celebrations." Based in Prague, Praha, Czech Republic (315 miles from Winterthur) 11th October 2026 Katharina Gruber - Corporate reception
