St Brigid's Fundraising Céilí

Did you know St Brigid has been awarded her own bank holiday in Ireland, starting in 2023?

Celebrating the pagan goddess, Christian saint and all-round wonder woman, we will celebrate St Brigid with what we do best - a céilí! With music from the fabulous Finn's Hotel, guests will enjoy an evening of live ceili calling and trad music in the historical and warm surroundings of the Unitarian Church.

Run by the Festival’s Trustees and featuring live music from the ‘legendary’ Finn’s Hotel, you and your friends will enjoy called céilí dancing; a raffle and affordable bar - all in the incredible surrounds of Ullet Road’s Unitarian Church.

Ticket holders will find easy parking on neighbouring streets. The venue is close to the 86 and 75 bus routes. All proceeds go to the Liverpool Irish Festival (charity number 1100126) to help sustain our commitment to advancing Irish creativity and public access to it.

The Liverpool Irish Festival runs many events each year (usually over 50), the majority of which are free or -at the very least- subsidised. An event like this, help us to show our funders, sponsors and audiences that we raise money from other sources. Commercial ticket income, like this, allows us to show people a good time, whilst giving us an income to use as 'match' against public funds.

The performers and venue have volunteered their time in support of the Festival. Every penny helps. Donations can be made on top of online ticket purchases, in cash in person, or by cheque or online payment. We are extremely grateful for all support we receive. We promise to reinvest this in to more arts and cultural activities in future.
