About Us

Celtic Connexions started in Te Aroha in 2004 and has been born out of the need by the owner to obtain local Celtic goods here in New Zealand.

Being a specialist shop, I suppose it was inevitable that a city location was on the cards and so the move was made April 06 and now here we are in Claudlands on the edge of Hamilton city, New Zealand.

I'm passionate about all types of music - a player not just of Highland bagpipes but smallpipes ,whistles and now that I'm learning  the Irish Uillean Pipes,  has brought a dream come true of 20 years to own and operate a shop.

Visits hame to the old land, and also the sourcing of new products is fun.

And its not just the Scottish stuff thats fun sourcing.  Welsh, Irish, Manx, Cornish, Breton and Galician items are on the list too.
