A bit about us...
Corryvrechan dances at major international festivals and many events around the UK.
We also perform at ceilidhs, weddings, Scottish themed evenings, country fairs, charity events and corporate dinners.
In fact, we have a programme to suit any occasion which calls for some traditional Scottish entertainment.
You don't have to wait for St Andrew's Night or a Burns Supper!
We aim to communicate our enthusiasm for the traditions of Scotland's dances to all our audiences, wherever they may be.
We also thank all of you who watch our performances and join in the general sessions. We hope that you enjoy them as much as we do!
Please contact us if you are interested in finding out more.

We saw you at Builth Wells, and thought, "wow! We've got to see more of this." So we went to Shipham, and wow again. It is mind blowing, and I know what I'm watching.

Thank you so much for Saturday night, the evening was a massive success and Corryvrechan played a very large part in this.

Did you know...?
The word ‘Corryvrechan’ comes from the Gaelic meaning ‘speckled hollow’.
It is the name of a whirlpool situated between the islands of Scarba and Jura in the Inner Hebrides, off the west coast of Scotland.
The movement of the swirling waters has many similarities to the figures of the dance.
