What happens

An Ríl Deal is a traditional Irish dancing television show on the Irish television channel TG4 that has been described as "Ireland's answer to Strictly Come Dancing". It is judged by a trio of judges (for a period, Breandán De Gallaí, Sibéal Davitt and Roy Galvin) and is run as a competition, with the winner getting to donate €5,000 towards a charity of their choice. In 2017, the winner was sent to New York City, USA to perform one night on Broadway. Notable participants since its inception in 2016 include; Ailbhe Liu and Seoda Wang, Ronan O'Connell, Robyn Caffrey, Caitlin Clarke, Youcef Belouazani, and the Newry based dance group Jig Jazz.
