Family Ceilidh Oxford
Regular family ceilidhs, usually held at Cutteslowe Pavilion. Run by a family and a group of musicians, these ceilidhs were founded to enable children to enjoy live folk music and join in. Prices are kept low; the dances are child-friendly and lots of fun for all ages. Also well suited for those with special educational needs and disabilities. There is also a café, bring your loose change for tea and biscuits.
Follow us on facebook or email us and we’ll put you on the mailing list.

Thank you to all those who came and shared in a lovely dance at St. Barnabas Church for Oxford Folk Festival. A marvelous time was had by all and the band was renamed The Flapjacks.
We're really excited to be back at the castle this May! Hoping you will come and join us there. Read below from the castle: they're giving a £4 discount per person on a castle tour with a ceilidh ticket :)
Held outside in the Castleyard, the Ceilidh will take place in front of the historic backdrop of Oxford Castle & Prison, with a live band and a caller who will guide you through all the dances. Brought to you by Family Ceilidh Oxford this is a fun and friendly event for the whole family to enjoy! Wear some clothes suitable for an outdoors event, and some shoes comfortable to dance in, and come along for a dance!

We had a great time at the Christmas Ceilidh! Thanks so much to Sophie and Graham in the cafe for making the delicious rocky roads and mulled cider.
The band played with gusto and is now called The Mince Pipers, but only till February 11th. If you come along you will have the chance to re-name them :)
