ST PATRICK’S CEILI BAND EXPERIENCE WITH… MOUSE’S NEST

Now it wouldn’t be St Patrick’s Day without a Ceili would it? So on the weekend before the world goes green for Ireland’s patron saint, Central Library will be hosting a special Ceili band and dancing experience in the Henry Watson Music Library.
Come down on Saturday 14th March, where local legends Mouse's Nest will be performing live in the afternoon to get your St Patrick’s Day weekend swinging.
Hailing from the Northwest, for over 15 years, Mouse’s Nest have put on storming performances across the UK, playing weddings, parties, fund-raisers, functions, dance workshops, and festivals. Performing at our Music Library for the first time, the band will be playing an exciting mixture of celtic tunes, carefully chosen for audiences to listen and dance to as they like.
Alongside their accomplished guitarist and fiddle player, the band will be bringing an expert ‘caller’ for those who might like to get in-step with some traditional celtic ceili dancing on the day too. On the day, the caller will walk each dance through before the music starts, and will keep calling to make sure everyone dancing knows exactly what to do.

A perfect celtic experience for families to join in the fun this Paddy’s Day, catch the Mouse’s Nest on Saturday 14th March from 2.30pm.
Tickets for the show will be “pay-what-you-can”, 1 per customer, on sale now.
All donations will go to Manchester Libraries.

Suitable for all ages.
