My child is a mature 7 year-old, but the fèis caters for 8-18. Can he/she attend?
This issue is at the discretion of individual fèisean, and you should contact them directly. In the case of a late-falling birthday where classmates are able to attend, some fèisean will make an exception. Do be aware that not all instruments are suitable for very small children (e.g. chanter), and do consider whether or not a child is emotionally mature enough to cope with the demands of a fèis day. Alternatively, some fèisean offer shorter sessions during the day for younger children.
