Why Performing Arts Groups Choose Celtic Horizon Tours

Deep industry experience

We have long-standing relationships with major event organisers, festival directors and venue managers. This allows us to secure performance slots, workshops, clinic sessions and backstage access that are often unavailable to the public.

Custom itineraries for every ensemble

Every group is different. Whether you are a school choir, a competitive Irish dance school or a marching band preparing for a showcase, we tailor the itinerary to your goals: performance, competition, workshops or cultural exploration.

Stress-free travel

We organise flights or ferries, accommodation, transfers, rehearsal spaces, equipment transport and on-the-ground support. Your performers, instruments and costumes arrive exactly where they need to be.

Safe, reliable and group-friendly

Our team manages risk planning, group coordination and student supervision requirements. You benefit from our decades of experience organising safe group travel for young performers.

Access to unforgettable performance moments

We create opportunities, not just itineraries. Think of standing under theatre lights, marching in a European parade, singing in a historic cathedral, or dancing before an international audience. These are moments that shape confidence and careers.

100% Irish Owned

We are based in Maynooth, Co. Kildare, holding an experience of 27 years.
