Join us for an exhilarating evening of dancing to celebrate Burns Night, in the beautiful St John's Waterloo. We are delighted to be joined by the amazing John Dipper, Hazel Askew and Gareth Kiddier to provide us with beautiful music, with the dance moves led our own Martin Clarke.

John Dipper and Hazel Askew and Gareth Kiddier are leading performers on the folk scene - multi-instrumentalists but predominently fiddle, melodeon and piano respectively. Hazel plays with BBC Radio 2 Folk Award nominated folk powerhouse Lady Maisery and traditional duo The Askew Sisters, while several of John's recent recording project have featured in The Times Top 10 Folk/Roots albums of the year.
Gareth in particular is well-known to Waterloo Ceilidhs, having supported us with sound tech since the start - and he is a hugely talented and experienced folk dance musician, so we're delighted to be able to welcome him to the stage for our January event.
This is a fun and inclusive evening of music and dancing. No experience necessary - all the dances are carefully explained. Come with friends or by yourself - it's a great way to meet new people. Bar provided.
Waterloo Ceilidhs is a leading ceilidh series at St John's Church, opposite Waterloo station. Featuring some of the country's top ceilidh bands and callers, we bring inclusive and high-energy ceilidhs to the London music scene.
