Burns Night Ceilidh 2027
Join us for the return of our popular Burns Night Ceilidh, a high-energy evening of music, dancing and Scottish celebration.

Providing the music is Ceilidh Factor, a band bringing together some of the finest talent on the folk scene. Led by acclaimed singer, multi-instrumentalist and caller Emily Askew, one of the most respected performers in English traditional music, the group also features renowned multi-instrumentalist John Dipper and guitarist and percussionist Luigi Cibrario. Their superb musicianship, infectious energy and expert calling guarantee a memorable evening of dancing for newcomers and experienced ceilidh-goers alike.
Whether you’re a seasoned ceilidh dancer or a complete beginner, Emily’s expert calling will guide you through every step. No experience is necessary, just gather some friends, don your tartan, and prepare for a joyful night of music, laughter and dancing.
The evening takes place at St John’s Place in Lower Bemerton, a beautifully refurbished Grade II listed former church. With its spacious dancefloor and atmospheric surroundings, it provides the perfect setting for this much-loved midwinter celebration.
Following a sold-out event in January 2026, we have once again limited ticket numbers to ensure plenty of space on the dancefloor and the best possible experience for everyone. We strongly recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.
A well-stocked bar will be available throughout the evening.
