Trad/world music act Kíla have confirmed that their annual festive shindig will take place in Dublin's Tripod on December 18.

Due to touring commitments abroad, this will be the band’s last performance in Ireland before May 2011. For the first time since 2004, Kíla will not be throwing their traditional St Patrick’s Day party in March next year, as members work on separate new projects.

Tickets are now on sale from €20, with a special group discount available for groups of 8 or more.
