We are excited to welcome you to the 2023 McInerney Feis on Sunday, October 8th. The feis will take place at the DCU Center in Worcester, MA. Be sure to join! Take advantage of dancing three rounds on a raised, well-lit stage like those at the Oireachtas. The top 3 dancers in all preliminary and open championship competitions will earn sashes, and 5 lucky open champions will take home a perpetual trophy! Dancers in preliminary championship may register for a prelim set competition as well. Don’t forget to register for the Irish Soda Bread Competition, try your luck at winning a raffle basket (or a few), and have some fun in the Crazy Sock Treble Reel Special for charity.
