The best part of the day...the Ceilí
Dont worry - this isn't what the Ceilís are really like, just to show you what an old tradition it is. It has been around for hundreds of years, and the Ceilís just keep getting better and better! They are often the best part of the day in the gaeltacht, as you get to see everyone dressed up and making an eejit of themselves dancing.
Most Ceilís have themes, like 60s night or Hawaiian Night, so remember to pack anything that might be useful - including a scissors and sellotape. Try and stand out and look original, as there's usually prizes for best dressed!
Don't stress about dancing in front of people, everyone looks silly at first, not just you! The singing wont be too bad 'cos everyone's at it, so relax and enjoy yourself!
