Oidhche Shònraichte!

$Ceilidh in full swing$ The Edinburgh Gaelic community's 'S Math Sin ceilidh on Friday 27th March at the Assembly Rooms was a memorable one, attracting a large audience, some coming from as far afield as Barra, Inverness, Harris and even Germany and the USA. With great music, dancing to the fantastic Black Rose Ceilidh Band, a superb atmosphere and the chance to be among friends, the night was hailed a huge success by all.

"This shows that Edinburgh can host major Gaelic events, and has the potential to provide a much bigger focus for the Gaelic community", said one commentator. The evening also raised funds for future initiatives for the Gaelic community, children and young people. Many thanks to all our [sponsors].
