Wristband System
To gain entry to the WUSR Oireachtas venue, all attendees must wear a facility wristband. Wristbands are provided to those who book accommodations through the official WUSR hotel blocks.
Wristbands are required for all attendees traveling from outside a 100-mile radius of the Spokane Convention Center. Dancers and families who choose to stay outside of the hotel block may purchase a wristband for $100 (this covers the full weekend) through the WUSR website under the Oireachtas page. The wristband policy will be strictly enforced throughout the weekend.
Please note: Any individuals who falsely claim non-receipt of wristbands in order to reverse payment through their bank will be prohibited from attending future WUSR Oireachtasí.
Why We Require Hotel Block Participation
Hosting an event of this scale costs significantly more than what dancer entry fees alone can support. By partnering with hotels through block agreements, we are able to secure vital benefits such as ballroom space, competition stages, meals and rooms for Adjudicators and Musicians—without dramatically raising entry fees. Without these hotel partnerships, entry costs would need to be approximately triple their current rates to cover all expenses.
We appreciate your understanding and support in helping keep the Oireachtas affordable for all families.
Please direct all questions to your TCs.
