Sessions are interesting phenomena. They are the best example of what Irish music is about. It’s an intangible thing that has to be experienced to be understood. The session is the life–blood of traditional music, and with the session goes the associated notion of “craic”.
Every Tuesday at the Corktown Pub, 175 Young Street, Hamilton, Ontario, L8N 1V7
Music will get underway at 6pm until 7 pm for trad tunes. 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm songs and tunes.
We hope to see you there!

Supporting our Community: Neighbour to Neighbour
You may have noticed, at the bar, that we have a donation jar to raise money for a local non-profit organization — Neighbour To Neighbour. This wonderful organization has been working in Hamilton for over 35 years to meet the issues of food insecurity and poverty head on.
The Irish Canadian Club will be collecting money for Neighbour to Neighbour during the Christmas Luncheon as a show of support at a time when the need for these important community support services is higher than ever before. Donations are optional.
Please Note: We are focused on fundraising and collecting donations for the organization rather than collecting non-perishable food items.

Welcome to the vibrant world of Toronto Irish Set Dancing! We are thrilled to introduce ourselves as the newest addition to Toronto’s rich cultural tapestry. Our journey began in the spring of 2023 when a passionate group of dancers came together with a shared love for Irish culture and dance. Inspired by the legacies of groups like Reel Blast and Open Door Ceilidhs, who paved the way before us, we aim to uphold and celebrate the spirited tradition of Irish set dancing in our community.
Irish set dancing isn’t just about the dance itself; it’s about forging connections and creating memories. It’s a lively social activity where strangers become friends and newcomers are welcomed with open arms. Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or a curious beginner, there’s a place for you in our group. We believe in the joy of movement, the thrill of mastering new steps, and the camaraderie that comes from dancing together.
As we embark on this journey, we invite you to join us in experiencing the infectious rhythm and joy of Irish set dancing. Keep an eye on our website and social media channels for updates on classes, workshops, and upcoming events. Let’s continue the tradition, create new memories, and dance our way into the hearts of Toronto together!
