In sunny weather the dancing will be in the amphitheatre by forum1 and if it’s raining in front of forum2, which is below the Nadischule in the Olympic Village, Nadistraße 3, 80809 Munich.

Both ceilidhs are free of charge and open to all, so they’re ideal for introducing your friends to Scottish dancing.
