Parade of Champions - NEWS

Due to feedback received by parents and dancers, some changes have been implemented for this year's Oireachtas.

There will be a step-down-the-line parade of champions added after results on Friday and Saturday as is done is every other region. This is to allow those not able to attend the dinner dance a chance to view our winners perform. Please plan to support the winners by cheering them on.

There will not be an earlybird performance of the evening display since there is no teen dance or teen movie night this year. There is no space to do this additional performance and there really isn't time. The additional performance has meant the (older) dancers in the parade miss out on their dinner at the dance, which they are paying for.

The rehearsal for the evening display will commence after the Saturday awards ceremony finishes. This rehearsal will be limited to two hours in a location to be announced. Pizza and water will be provided.

Dancers attending the dinner dance (i.e. those who bought tickets) will be released from the rehearsal first, so they can go get ready.

Every effort will be made to allow everyone a chance to eat dinner and not be completely rushed. Please understand that it is a lot of work to put together such a display in such a short time.

Kudos to Roisin McGinley for once again stepping up to help display our region's finest.
