Programme out this week.
Posted on Thursday, August 18, 2011
Look for our printed programme in a cafe, library or information centre near you. Or email us at info@nefc.org.nz and we'll post one to you. We're a bit excited about it. Of course it's all here on the website too, but it's nice having one of these in your pocket or handbag.
Already we're hearing a bit of a buzz "on the street" about the festival, with several enquiries about the Red Hot Chilli Pipers, and needless to say, a few enquiries about the Red Hot Chilli Peppers - not well known for their Celticity. | | | |
Chilli Pipers time change
Posted on Wednesday, August 17, 2011
Of course, if you're coming all the way to New Zealand during the Rugby World Cup to play the bagpipes, you're definitely going to want to take in the England/Scotland match - the same as 90% of people who might come to see you. As promoter Stuart Clumpas said, "It's England versus Scotland; this is bigger than rugby!"
Accordingly we've made the start time of the Red Hot Chilli Pipers concert 5pm. You should be well pumped for the kick-off at 8:30. Join us! | | | |
You think you know Dunedin? Try the Unauthorised History Tour.

Lead by storytellers and comedians, Kaitrin McMullen and Richard West, this one-and-a-half hour bus tour will take you to places familiar and new with rare and little-known factoids on the way. Never has Dunedin been seen in this light before. Leaving each Monday from the Railway Station and culminating in a meal and entertainment at Dunedin's most Scottish of restaurants.

Over the four Sundays of the Festival, the Knox Church community will bring a range of Celtic themed services, worship in a unique way that recognises the "who we are" and reflects on the spiritual aspect of the natural world, its seasons and bounties. | |
Red Hot Chilli Pipers Confirmed
Posted on Sunday, July 10, 2011
We are delighted to announce that we have secured this fantastic act for our festival finale. "Bagpipes with attitude. Drums with a Scottish accent. A blazing rock band and a show so hot it carries its own health warning. The Red Hot Chilli Pipers have been rocking the world from New York to Beijing with musicianship of the highest order and a passion for pipes that will leave you breathless." They will play the Dunedin Town Hall on Saturday 1st October. Tickets on sale soon. | | | |
2011 Festival will coincide with Ireland and Scotland Rugby World Cup games
Posted on Sunday, July 25, 2010
And what better way to celebrate with our visiting Celtic cousins than by welcoming them to a southern city of diverse talents, entertainment and hospitality. It will be the mission of the 2011 Dunedin Celtic Ats Festival to show ourselves as a warm and engaging community with our own take on contemporary Celtic arts.
