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 6 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 and try your luck at winning a raffle basket (or a few).​
