Reel Retreat: Irish Music Camp

Some things are best learned by living them. Reel Retreat is a three-day residential music camp for adults — a proper immersion in Irish traditional music, culture, and community, set in a beautiful location in Ireland.

Designed for music lovers of all levels, Reel Retreat brings together top Irish traditional musicians as tutors and guides. Your days are spent in hands-on workshops learning fiddle, bodhrán, guitar, accordion, or tin whistle — building technique, learning tunes, and getting comfortable with the music in a relaxed and supportive environment. Your evenings are spent the way evenings should be spent in Ireland — around a fire, instruments in hand, playing together in the kind of informal session that is the true heart of the tradition.

Irish language, dance, and folklore are woven through the weekend, giving you a deeper sense of the culture that produced the music. Meals are taken together, friendships form quickly, and by the time Sunday comes around most people are already looking for the next one.

​

Whether you are a complete beginner, a returning player, or someone who has always played alone and wants to finally learn how to play with others — Reel Retreat will meet you where you are and send you home changed.
