The Ceildih Jam with Folk Dance Remixed

Celebrate the start of spring and take part in Street Dance the Maypole, creating ripples and breaks around a bespoke, ribboned, 12-foot freestanding maypole installed on the Southbank Centre’s Riverside Terrace.

Learn a funky routine to live music, mixing classic maypole dances, like the Chrysanthemum Wrap and the Twister, with street dance moves, to a unique soundtrack of fiddle and beatboxing.

Ceilidh Jam gets guests on their feet for a funked-up, unique social dance – a great chance for all to get grooving. Using traditional callers to teach moves, they mix folk formations, street dance and freestyle grooves – from Strip the Willow to the Electric Slide.

Between workshops, the party keeps going with live DJ sets from Guava Jamz to keep the energy high all day.
