The Caledonian Society's Summer Ball is here!!
Join us to enjoy a festive evening of Scottish reeling, accompanied by live music from the Cragievar Ceilidh Band.
With drinks and snacks provided, this black-tie ball is the perfect way to celebrate the end of a successful year, or to just come along and have a good time. Absolutely everyone is welcome!
We strongly recommend that if you haven't tried reeling before or are feeling a little rusty, coming along to our a couple of our Ball Prep Sessions (see main webpage for more details), as we won't be teaching any of the dances on the night. If you're not able to attend any of the Ball Prep Sessions, fear not! There is a complete dance list below, replete with instructional videos from London Reels.
If you're a non-UCL individual, you can purchase tickets by creating a 'local account' to log-in with.
Any further questions, don't hesitate to get in contact!!
