Wren boy hats–you’ll see them at Thursday’s Wren Party.

Merry Christmas to all of you from all of us!

Christmas is on Wednesday this week. There are some Wednesday events that recur weekly on our calendar so those are likely to be cancelled this week—but check. Some dancers will leave their Christmas table if there’s a good eight-hand reel to be had.

Going up till Christmas, we have some local groups performing: The Shanty’s at Paddywhack’s in Philly and Jamison at RP McMurphy’s in Holmes on Saturday.

On December 26, head over to the Knights of Columbus Hall for the 14th annual Wren Party, with live music and dancing and parade of wren hats. For more about the Wren tradition, read our story and check out some photos and a video from a past party.

On Friday, The Broken Shillelaghs will be at Dubh Linn Square in Bordentown, NJ.

Check back to see if more events are added to our calendar this coming week. We won’t be publishing, but we will be updating and letting you know on our Facebook page.
