Dancers are invited to kick off the festive season at a Unicorn Ceilidh in Baldock this December.

The event will be held at St Mary's Church Hall in Church Street on Friday, December 6.

Doors open at 7.30pm for an 8pm start, with music and dancing until 11pm. 

Tickets cost £13 for adults, with concessions for children, students and seniors. To book go to www.unicornceilidhs.org.uk.

Folk musicians Sarah Matthews and Doug Eunson will perform at the ceilidh - bringing their mix of English traditional and self-penned melodies, which are described as "rich in harmony" and with "a strong driving groove".

Both Sarah and Doug are experienced dancers and regularly play for dancing at festivals across the UK.

Calling the dances will be Unicorn Ceilidh favourite Andy Rouse, who will give clear instructions to guide the dancers through the moves.

Interval entertainment will be provided by Baldock Midnight Morris, who have performed at Unicorn Ceilidhs many times over the past 18 years.

They dance mainly in the Cotswold Morris style, but include some 'Border' style dances, as well as their own Baldock tradition.

A real ale, cider, wine and soft drinks bar will be available during the interval, as well as a raffle.
