About event

🎃 Step into the Spirit of the Season at October’s All Sets Céilí – Irish Squares!

Friday, October 17, 2025 | 7:00 – 10:00 pm | Waverly, Portland

Costumes, live music, and community dancing come together for a joyful night at the All Sets Céilí – Irish Squares on Friday, October 17, from 7:00 to 10:00 pm at Waverly, 3300 SE Woodward St, Portland.

Held every 3rd Friday from September to May, this monthly dance series brings the vibrant tradition of Irish set dancing to life. It’s a joyful, social form of dance where people come together in groups—often in square formations—and dance to spirited traditional music.

What is a céilí?
A céilí (pronounced "kay-lee") is a traditional Irish social gathering featuring music, dance, and good company. At its heart, it’s about coming together to share rhythm, laughter, and connection—whether you're an experienced dancer or stepping onto the floor for the first time.

October's céilí adds a festive twist: costumes are encouraged! Come dressed in your favorite seasonal outfit—fun, playful, or creative—and join the celebration.

Each céilí features:
🎻 Live traditional Irish music
📣 All dances called & taught
🌈 Non-gendered calling
🤝 No partner needed
🎭 Costumes welcome and encouraged!

Whether you're a regular dancer or just curious to try something new, you’re warmly invited.

WHAT: All Sets Céilí – Irish Squares
WHEN: Friday, October 17, 2025 • 7:00 – 10:00 pm
