Sendai Irish Rovers is one of the oldest Scottish Country Dance groups in Japan. …
Sendai Irish Rovers is one of the oldest Scottish Country Dance groups in Japan. Every autumn many dancers from all over the country come to Sendai to attend the annual dancing event held by Sendai Irish Rovers. The dancers of Sendai Irish Rovers and Shinjuku Happy Meeting travelled round Scotland in 2004 and 2007. I named the tour group "Happy Rovers".
