Tacoma Ceili: Live Irish Music & Dance
About this Event
Listen, dance, relax, rejuvenate with live Irish music and dance on one of the longest days of the year–almost 16 hours of daylight! The sun sets at 9:04pm–and there is twilight until 10:35pm.
Tacoma Ceili (pronounced kay-lee) is high energy and low key: You can dance or just relax (or take turns on that!). Kathleen O’Grady Graham teaches you the steps–and then leads you through each dance with an emphasis on fun rather than perfection. We have a great line-up of top-quality musicians, with Randal Bays on fiddle, Mikey Beglan on accordion, and Suzanne Taylor on keyboard.
Saturday, June 13th, 2026, from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM at the Immanuel Presbyterian Church at 901 N. J St. All ages and abilities are welcome, with an option for a dance lesson from 7:00–7:30 PM. Visit our Facebook (Tacoma Ceili) or Instagram (tacoma.ceili) for reels.
