Welcome to the home of Catch the Pigeon ceilidh band, based around Ely, Cambridgeshire.

Please contact us if you have an event that you’d like us to play for. If you provide the people and the place, our musicians will play the tunes that make people want to dance, and our expert caller will teach the dances in a fun and easy to follow way.

You can find news and photos on our Facebook and Instagram pages, which you should be able to see even if you don’t have an account. You can also join our mailing list.


More public ceilidhs on 20th and 28th September 2024 – see the News page for details.
