Does anyone know of a good dance (ceilidh) website? The ones I have looked at IMO are not very good.

Hi Sandra
I don't know where you are but if you're in the New England area of the US google NEFFA.

Can you give a little more detail about what you are looking for?
A list of venues/clubs/scheduled dances? If so, what style dance are you interested in, and what geographical region?
A resource for particular kinds of dances (contra, square, etc.) with calls and choreography notes, etc?
Something different?

What are you looking for exactly? It would help to know. If Morris I can't advise, but many here will be able to.

this link has a few links - if it is dance discussion try the "Dance Resources" link (US based). E-Ceilidh is a reasonable place to discuss E-C (English Ceilidh and NOTHING else) and AllCeilidh is similar with a more relaxed attitude to dance styles. They are essentially UK e-mail forums.

If it is Dances in the UK try Webfeet, "Are you Dancing" and "Set and Turn Single" (dates and schpiel) or if in a small area of the UK try this page

Basically once you have found one they link around so get surfing.

Are you a dancer? Caller? Band member? Researcher? Event organiser? Festival Organiser?

The answers people give will be angled towards the requirement.

What sites have you found that are not answering your requirements? It would inform us, so we could inform you.
