Kansas City Feis

3 weeks ago

We are receiving many emails and messages. We wanted to take a moment to quickly update you all.

We are planning on running our feis as scheduled with a few minor changes. We want to give students the most opportunities they can, since we are one of the first in-region Feiseannas since everything was shut down from COVID-19. As such, we will be hosting a double feis weekend (a feis on Saturday and a feis on Sunday: Kansas City Feis and Heart of America Feis). Along with our double feis, we will host a second chance feis on Saturday for novice, prizewinner, and pc dancers. Since the Irish festival is cancelled, our schedule has opened tremendously, so we have made the decision to host a double feis on Sunday as well (again, only for novice, prizewinner, and pc dancers). You heard correct; a double feis/double second chance for novice, prizewinner and pc dancers. That’s up to 4 chances for novice, prizewinner, and pc dancers!!!

We have made the decision to not offer dances that bring in a crowd to one area or that requires students to touch one another. So we have made the choice to not offer ceilis, treble reels and our treble reel special (silly sock competitions) this year. We love watching students compete in all these dances, but we want you all to be safe and we want to avoid group dances. We hope to return as normal next year for these dances.

We are waiting on our syllabi to get approved before we can proceed with registration. Our registration is through feisworx (we are listed as ‘coming soon’ on the homepage). Please be on the lookout for that opening soon. I’ll also make sure to post here as well.

Our hotel room block is still open. For those that have not been to our feis, we host our feis inside the ballrooms at the Westin Crown Center (Kansas City). Our only room block, at the present time, is at the Westin Crown Center. See previous post for the link to that. Our room rate is $117 a night. The Westin is a Marriott hotel, so I believe their cancelation policy is 48-72 hours before (depending on if you have status or not).

We’ve had many people ask us about our feis, since they’ve never been before. If you are considering our feis, we would love for you to visit. Like we previously said, we are inside a hotel (we love being able to wakeup and walk downstairs/take an elevator to the feis). We have 5 stages in 5 different rooms (2 champ stages & 3 grade stages). We have a different musician for each stage. We rotate our judges. We offer a performing arts and academic scholarships.

Lastly, we have been asked many questions about how Kansas City is running. Our city is officially up and running. I believe our last day, of the last phasing period, ended over the weekend. But to be honest, the city has been up and running to near normal for weeks.

Hope this information helps. We hope to see you in Kansas City over Labor Day weekend. ...
