EDIT: How do you get a Meet and Greet? I don’t see the option. Is it just not available for this particular show? 😔
IDK everything. But it looks like it is offered as an add-on for certain shows but not all of them. It probably depends on their schedule and the venue. So it should say on the venue website, or when you go through the process of buying tix. In years past of course, every show had a M&G offered by PBS.

Yay! I finally got tickets! I was happy to still get Row 2 after waiting for such a long time.  Got a M&G too, since I've never met the new ladies.

I come across another fun fact too: Sal is a member of Biird, which of course is the same group Ciara is in.
Nice find! Maybe she recommended Kate for CW, knowing Ciara was going on tour with BIIRD???

A new member just got announced, for at least the spring tour.
https://www.facebook.com/celticwoman/posts/pfbid0vXg6zdKzTwP4feSkBEGvbD3NWzLGPG121g4r97x4Q5QJcV8kaKZeExrWRm6rkfn6l
Exciting announcement
We’re delighted to welcome Kate Heneghan, award-winning Irish fiddle player and multi-instrumentalist, to the Celtic Woman family.
Kate joins the Celtic Woman lineup for the upcoming Spring Tour, kicking off 4 March in Providence, MA.
We send our warmest wishes to Ciara as she tours the globe with Biird, another female Irish music sensation!
Tickets for the Spring Tour are available at https://www.celticwoman.com/tour-dates
From the FB post: Kate joins the Celtic Woman lineup for the upcoming Spring TourFrom the CW email: Introducing our newest member for our Spring Tour 2026In both of those, just the wording make it sound like she's on for one tour. IDK.

The violinist in that ad is Kate Heneghan I believe!
First of all, nice call by AeFondAshley before the official announcement was made! How did you know that? Also I agree with stars_at_dawn that it is weird there has been no announcement about Tara. For that reason, I think whether she comes back or not is still TBD. Like she is gonna see how it goes. I'm hoping she will come back when the baby is older, e.g. when having a nanny is more practical. IDK. Wishful thinking.

The tour starts in a little over a month. Have there been any hints on social media (official or unofficial) about new material?

Here's a version of Megan after she left CW, at Eabha's CWF. https://youtu.be/YDT8Umfh44U?si=paQRLEHJfx0JyXByProbably shouldn't be in your poll. But a very good cover and kind of a different version of Megan.

I might have to abstain from voting because I can't vote fairly if Eabha's blue Homecoming dress is in the vote. Haha. 
I don't usually comment on dresses, hair, and make-up. But that might be my fav CW dress of all-time!!!
Yes!!! That dress is so wonderful! The most beautiful shade of blue combined with that lovely shape with the skirt jutting out! All of the first act Homecoming gowns were incredibly lovely!
Ok now we're going way off topic. But I think I heard Tara say somewhere (or I read it on here) her Homecoming dress was her personal fav of all-time. I'll get it back on track by commenting on your poll later. Sorry for hijacking your thread.

It would be nice to have a little tribute section to mention all of those who had performed at Christmas concerts since TMOC came out. Also, what if they got a feature on there, à la the 20th anniversary special? Like if we had all the members since 2019 (minus maybe Chloë because I don’t think she performed for any Symphony concerts) perform Auld Lang Syne. That’s probably an impossible request, but it could be sweet 🤷♀️ (this is also partially because I miss Emma 😭 also, does anyone have any clips of her singing Do You Hear What I Hear?)
I have been listening to the 20th songs lately, like Sionann and Rainbow. Emma is so good. I wish there is some way she can come back.

So there is going to be a show in my area. Logged on to the venue's website. The venue's "members" could buy their ticket starting Wednesday. General Public can't buy them until Saturday. The venue is offering a VIP package, which includes a meet and greet, but it appears it is only open to their members
@dbbii: Out of curiosity, which venue is this? Are you going to any other shows near you? I think there are quite a few.

Thanks for posting. Even if AI is not 100% correct, that was mostly new info to me. I would have been able to spot that was an AI answer by the last line of your last post, where it used "New Era" out of context. On a side note, when I search for concert dates (e.g. before the official announcements), I find the AI answers are oftentimes wrong. It will get the concert date from other random concerts listed on the same webpage or from previous years.

I know where you are coming from. It is so easy now & more common for artists to put out 'visualizers', lyric videos, or in this case yule log videos. I thought there would be some videos for Nollaig since they teased it with some BTS videos.
They did do a good job on Christmas Cards. If I ever get around to it, I am going to make a hard CD of that EP & try to make it look professionally made.

I think most likely Siúil A Rún, though maybe Isle Of Innisfree.
Yes, I think of those and Carrickfergus.
But since Meav sang a new song for the 20th that she sang on her own previously, I was trying to think of a similar song for Orla. I like Red Is The Rose, which Mairead added later as a single. So that would have brought the whole thing full circle.
My guess has to why Meav sang a new song, which BTW best thing ever because it's become my favorite lullaby, but makes me wonder is because Dulaman was already done as a group opening and Danny Boy remains a group song. She could of done Si Do Mahieimi but she already done it on Destiny.
I would think for Orla having a song featuring her playing the Harp would absolutely be a must!
Perhaps this could be another topic
As much as Lisa Kelly did fine given Caledonia, I feel the impact would have made it extra more special if she did Fields of Gold again because many years have passed since those summer days as we walked in Fields of Gold, oh we'll walk in as a salute to on going new lineups.
The Blessing would of been another great one. If you feel as I do about Caledonia, I would love to hear your opinion takes, was it the best selection.
I actually LOVE the song selection for Lisa Kelly, in terms of the meaning. The song is about returning home. It reminds me of Lisa's return home to CW, since she left for such a long time and reportedly said she would never come back. Here is the chorus. Let me tell you that I love you and I think about you all the time Caledonia you're calling me and I'm going home But if I should become a stranger you know that it would make me more than sad Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
