Brrrr, it’s cold out there. And it’s also cold in here. Irishphiladelphia.com lost power during the recent ice storm so we’re borrowing wifi to update the site. For those of you with power—and without—here are some places where you can warm up this week.

On Saturday, Jamison will be Celtic rocking at Archbishop Ryan, a fun fundraiser for the school’s scholarship fund.

In Collingswood, NJ, Saturday night, the amazing Irish group, Clannad will be performing.

And you can catch the Broken Shillelaghs at Nipper’s Pub in Westville, NJ.

On Wednesday, take your honey to the Birdhouse Center for the Arts in Lambertville, NJ, for an evening of love songs by Annalivia, Justin Nawn, and Bronwyn Bird.

On Thursday, the Irish guitar band Kodaline is performing at World Café Live in Philadelphia.

A heads up for next weekend: The CRN-USA North American Open Irish Dance Championships will take place at Newark Liberty International Airport Marriott Hotel in Newark. Chairwoman of the CRN-USA is Olivia Hilpl, who runs the award-winning Rince Ri Irish Dance School in Bucks County.

And Donal Clancy will be performing at the Coatesville Cultural Center on Feb. 17.

Please check our calendar for other regular events, like the many sessions, and dance lessons in both Philadelphia and Wilmington. But check first before you set out. Some events may be cancelled because of the power problems in the area. We just learned, for example, that the regular AOH Ceili in Bridgeport was cancelled for this week because of power outages.
