We are delighted to welcome dancers from Continental Europe and Asia to the 2024 Vienna Feis run by Rafter School of Irish Dancing Vienna. The feis has meanwhile become quite a fixture in the European calendar of feisanna, and we are all happy to have you back!
The venue is a sports hall of the City of Vienna, well known to those who have participated since 2015. The hall boasts large stands for the audience affording a fantastic view of all the floors, a warm-up area and a separate results area in Hall A and numerous changing rooms.
Attention: Contrary to our original announcement, this feis is open to all CLRG dancers from ALL REGIONS!
Adjudicators:Tara McConomy, Derry
Jim Murrihy, Dundalk
Michael Stanley, Nottingham
Melissa Convery, Banbridge
Musician: Kristian FišlPlease note, that this year, like in 2023, it is a one-day feis. It will be run with four adjudicators for four floors, and one of the floors will be big enough for us to offer a full championship.
Teachers and adjudicators will be very welcome to our hospitality room.
There will be a caterer where you can buy food and drinks. We are still looking for a vendor to see if we can also offer a dance supplies stall. More information will come to you via our website www.viennafeis.at (coming soon!) ! We’ll also have a raffle with tickets for € 2.50 each – every ticket’s a winning ticket!
There will be trophies for all winners and medals for runners-up.
Please note that the Treble Reel is again a themed competition, and we hope that you like the idea of going back to the Roaring Twenties, the era of the Charleston and silent movies this year! Maybe Charlie Chaplin and The Great Gatsby will inspire your choice of costume…
Joan Rafter ADCRG TCRG, Lucia Rafter TCRG, Melanie Holub-Habermayer TCRG, the club President Ellie Frank-Grossebner and the Feis Committee members wish all dancers the best of success and a great time in Vienna, the city of music and dancing!
We are looking forward to welcoming you all back in Vienna for our Feis! See you soon!
