BelfastTrad (Traditional Music and Dance Society)
BelfastTrad Traditional Music & Dance Society is a registered charity and has been providing tuition in Irish music and dance since 1991. Our aim is to promote and develop a knowledge and love of these traditional arts and to encourage participation from anyone who is interested in learning.
Services
We are run by an all-volunteer committee and we are open to the whole community. We run 34 music and dance classes per week, three terms per year, supplemented by over 20 workshops featuring some of the best practitioners of these art forms in the world.
Our classes are held primarily at the Crescent Arts Centre, 2-4 University Road, located between Shaftesbury Square and Queen’s University, Belfast. We also support classes for the St Brigid’s Parish Traditional Music School, the Céilí series at Belfast Castle and dance at the Camphill Community at Glencraig.
