Brian O’Donovan’s A Celtic Sojourn has entertained and enlightened radio audiences since 1986. Now celebrating a two decades of holiday performances, the Christmas-time live version of the show draws on Celtic, Pagan, and Christian traditions to celebrate the music of the season. A Christmas Celtic Sojourn reflects the compelling and diverse offerings of the weekly national radio program plus the excitement of a live show featuring the Celtic world’s best performers. The 2022 iteration of the show promises once again to be one of the chestnuts of the region’s Christmas offerings.
A gathering of singers, musicians, dancers, and story-tellers celebrating Celtic, Pagan, and Christian traditions to celebrate the season.
Led by host Brian O’Donovan, the Christmas Celtic Ensemble is still being assembled but will include the following, and we are beyond excited.
