Celtic Folk Music With A Difference!
So we had our beautiful Christmas stream at the Archeon and we ran into someone at the end of the broadcast! You could say an old acquaintance, we have continued to make music of course. Want to see who we’ve met and what we’ve played after the stream ended?
Then join us on Sunday on Boxing Day at 16:00 CET during the Watchparty, we will continue with what happened after the stream, lots of fun, lots of music, will we see you then?
Merry Christmas from Rapalje & Crew
Fairytale of New York – Merry Christmas from Rapalje
We had a rehearsal for Fairytale of New York we wanted to share with you, during this stream we also revealed the Promo Code ChristmaswithRapalje for 15% off all our merchandise at https://rapalje.com/shop/
So get your Christmas presents and enjoy the full Live stream on Saturday, we hope to see you there!
Live on on Facebook, YouTube and our website
Why are we going to do Christmas into Folk again via the livestream? The first reason is of course clear, doing live shows is difficult at the moment and through the stream we can share Christmas into Folk with everyone. Why do we like this so much, because we love music of course! There are very few things more beautiful than stepping on stage and seeing an audience waiting for the first note to play.
We think the involvement of the public is great, giving someone a happy feeling, or letting them dream away to a holiday in Scotland and Ireland. Or to be moved by a beautiful song where you are touched by a memory. If you come home and want to hear a song from us because you enjoyed it that evening, that’s the biggest compliment for us.
But the people at Rapalje who are not on stage also like it, for example Jeroen and Sjors, our technical champions, they make sure that the light and sound work every time so that everyone can see and hear us. Jeroen and Sjors love the band’s enthusiasm to always and everywhere give the best for the audience, it is very contagious! At our office Rutger takes care of all the performances and the administration, he loves the freedom and all the unexpected things that working for Rapalje entail.
So everyone at Rapalje helps to make it a great Christmas into Folk, enjoy!
We hope to see you live on Saturday December 18 at 3:00 PM CET.
Tonight we will do the rehearsal for Christmas during our livestream, of course that includes a present under the tree! So we made a special Christmas coupon to use in the shop on our website.

Preparing a Christmas stream, oh dear! Tomorrow (tuesday, 14.12.2021) we are going to rehearse live at Maceál and you can all join us at 20:00 PM CET on Facebook.

Wondering what an evening like this looks like or maybe you forgot after such a long time? Here is a video from the 2019 edition to get you as excited as we are. Don’t forget; if you can’t be there in person, you can also join us online and tickets are available for that. We hope every Rapalje, Saor Patrol and Flannery fan out there will join us, because this will be a night to remember!
One of the most beloved bands of our Rapalje Zomerfolk Festival and rightly so! With Flannery you are always guaranteed a party and a musical spectacle. The music makes Celtic sounds pop, supported by heavy guitar music. Try to keep your feet still: go with that bagpipe!
