A wonderful experience by the ha'penny bridge - Had a great time at the dance party. There was a good mix of nationalities that took part and all were up for the craic. Gary was the compere and musician and singer all rolled in to one and he kept the party going with a good mix of chat and songs between the dancing sessions. The dancers were absolutely excellent, world class at their craft. And patient teachers too! All in all a great experience in the run up to Christmas. We would highly recommend it for a fun few hours in a fabulous location and venue

A Fun and Memorable Experience at The Irish Dance Party! - We had an amazing time at The Irish Dance Party! The entertainment was top-notch, featuring a talented singer and energetic dance performances. It was such a joy to learn some iconic Irish dance steps and embrace the vibrant culture. A special shoutout to Jim, the singer and host, who truly made the experience memorable. He performed a great mix of Irish and holiday songs and kept the energy high as an excellent emcee. The only improvement we’d suggest is having a bit more space so everyone can join in the dancing together. Overall, it’s a fantastic way to enjoy traditional Irish music and dance while having lots of fun. Highly recommended!

Really fun, even for non-Irish folks! - Everything promised and more. The comedian/singer/ host was super welcoming to each and every person. The dancers were very good and engaging for all those who hesitated.

Mixed opinion - It would have been a great experience if we hadn’t been standing on the mezzanine to see the show. Maybe review the number of people to comfortably see the show

Room for improvement - The venue (room they rent) is too small for the volume of people taking part. The experience would be better if longer, to do smaller groups to take part in dancing or only learn 1 dance instead of 3. Also would like to see more dances from the girls. Love that it's interactive however I think 1 dance is enough to learn so more time to see the professionals dancing. Steve was great singing, jokes and getting to know where everyone is from. Loved the Irish music and songs that are well known.
