Celtic Music Series Comes to The Sofia

The Sofia has announced the Celtic Music Series, an ongoing partnership with de Vere's Irish Pub and SBL Entertainment. After the success of past celtic bands like We Banjo 3 and ____, The Sofia Artistic Director Buck Busfield wanted to further the celtic programming at Midtown's newest live entertainment jewel.

The launch of the series will begin with three acts in 2019. The Hightime Irish Band, the John Doyle Duo and Irish Christmas In America. See any of these acts individually or buy all three at a special rate, saving 20% on tickets. The series will be ongoing, adding acts yearly which allows patrons to take advantage of the series package without restrictions.
