Barn dance
A barn dance is often confused with a Ceilidh as it is a similar kind of event, but does not have to be (as is the case with a Ceilidh) traditionally Irish or Scottish dancing. Barn dances are generally to folk music, often played by a live band, and involve a caller who instructs the dancers in their dancing. Barn dances can be for a wide range of ages, and often children dance alongside adults. Ceilidhs on the other hand are often much louder and frenetic, involving mainly young people.
