New Year's Ceildh 2024

 

Our New Year's Eve ceilidh is fast approaching, and tickets are going well - there's no better way to welcome in the New Year than having a leap around to a fun and lively ceilidh!

If you're intending coming and haven't bought your tickets yet it's best you get your skates on.

Due to the size of the venue, ticket numbers are limited, and when they're gone they really are gone!

Order your tickets from https://wegottickets.com/event/638199

Please bring a generous contribution (enough for the size of your party) for the food share, sweet or savoury, up to you - it always works out well in the end!

You bring the food, we provide the cutlery & crockery.

Please don't bring your own drinks, there's a decent bar - and we really like to support the Morley Green Club.

Come to the Ceilidh, Mobberley, 9th Dec 2023

This is going to be a good 'un!

It's been a while since we last played a ceilidh at the Mobberley Victory Hall so we were more than a bit delighted to be invited to play a fundraising ceilidh for Mobberley Pre-School.

The big guns are out for this one: HopGoblin Big Band (HopGoblin + Olde Vic), with Baz Parkes calling.

This might mean that Rob, who normally calls for us, would be out of a job - but no, he's going to be joining us on stage, playing one of his very many melodeons! (A chap can never have enough melodeons, it's the law y'know).

Tickets for this humdinger of a ceilidh are available from Helen on 07826 658998, Helen.Kynnersley@outlook.com

Mobberley Pre-School is a registered charity: 1054730
