Contra at St Patrick's Day Music Festival March 17th

Contradance and Irish Music are like two lovers who fell in love at first sight and have been inseparable ever since. Contra has helped spread Irish music and
culture to lands far and wide, and Irish music and culture have carried
contra into the hearts of dancers all over the world.

That's why we're proud to be taking part in the Annual St Patrick's Day
Festival in Kyoto Music Festival on Saturday, March 17th. For the first
time, a CONTRAKYOTO dance will be one of the events at the festival, so
put on your finest green outfit and come dance with us.

The opening parade starts at 12, followed by a live aeolian pipe band
concert featuring Fuigoza at 1PM.
At 1:30, the CONTRA dancing will start, with a live session band and
plenty of Irish food and music from the best Irish pubs in Kyoto. Bring
your friends and don't be late.
At 2:50, there will be a concert by the Ethnic Music Club of Kyoto.

The festival is being held at Rokkun Plaza, in shuikyogoku arcade, near
Movix. A map and full information is available here

See you there!
