Philly Area Celtic Bands Jan/Feb Appearance Schedule - AKA: Possible Kilt Nights

[MACKAY]

Was looking for a good venue for another Philly Kilt Night, and figured I would put together a little local Philly schedule of events that have the potential to become great evenings of kilting, singing, and general merry making. I am sure I missed a few local bands and venues, but thought it was a good start!

14th ANNUAL GREATER PHILADELPHIA MID-WINTER SCOTTISH & IRISH MUSIC FESTIVAL

There are so many options there it is a little overwhelming. Anything at Brittinghams is great, I've never been to Finnigans Wake but I only hear good things. The weekends work better for me because I have to get up so damned early for work. I know Rocky in another thread proposed January 6 at Brittinghams to see The Bogside Rogues.

The individual nights are not practical for me to make a trip to Philly, but the Midwinter Festival has potential.

[KiltedHuntsman]

'Tis a pity no one is interested in a Burns Night in Philly...

[Shay]

The huz and I are going to see ETH at Brittinghams, and the whole family (including probably Xan in his little kilt) will be at the midwinter festival.

[RockyR]

Kelly and I are going to be in Scotland for Burn's night, or we'd be at a burns night somewhere over here...

We'll be vendors at the Mid Winter fest... the band list looks pretty impressive. Definitely worth the trip. Keep your eyes peeled for a Kilt night right around the middle of Feb (when Hank and his crew are up here in King Of Prussia for the mid winter fest).

There's some Burn's nights in the works, found these on a musician's website:
