Irish dancing in this area started in the early 1990s. During the nineties small groups worked to become fully organized Irish dance schools, with teachers becoming TCRGs.
There are currently 2 schools in Italy, 2 in Switzerland, 2 in France, and 1 in Spain and Portugal. This region is growing steadily. The first ADCRG and BG in mainland Europe come from this region - Esther Bromley, Italy.
Two annual feisanna are run in The South West, although the very first feis in France will be held this year- 2018.
