We are excited to announce our Summer Ball for this year!! Join us for an evening of reeling to the wonderful Craigievar Band - snacks and drinks provided! 💃

We will be in Elvin Hall, IOE at UCL Main Campus on Friday 15th May 2026. Doors open at 7pm with time to fill in dance cards and have a drink, with dancing starting promptly at 7:30pm, until 11pm.

We intend for the ball to be open for those who have not reeled much or at all before, so we are hosting a number of FREE ball prep sessions for anyone who wants to get a feel for the dances or refresh their skills. This is because there will be no teaching at the ball!

Upcoming ball prep sessions:

• Tuesday 5th May - 6-9pm - IOE Punnett Hall 
• Thursday 7th May - 6-9pm - IOE Elvin Hall 
• Monday 11th May - 6-9pm - IOE Punnett 
• Wednesday 13th May - 6-9pm - IOE 305 Clarke Hall

Don't worry if you can't make any of the prep sessions, you can also watch these video tutorials for a reminder of our dances https://www.londonreels.co.uk/videos

1. Dashing White Sergeant 
2. Eightsome & Foursome Reels
