Celtic Woman: A New Journey is the second on-stage production by the group Celtic Woman. The show was filmed at Slane Castle in County Meath, Ireland and featured Hayley Westenra as a new addition to the group. The album was released on 30 January 2007. This album broke a long-standing record when it surpassed the 81 week run of the original Celtic Woman album. Something interesting to note is that the Celtic Woman performers change their outfits at least three times.

Performers in A New Journey are vocalists Chloë Agnew, Órla Fallon, Lisa Kelly, Méav Ní Mhaolchatha and Hayley Westenra, with Máiréad Nesbitt on violin and Órla Fallon on harp.

The album opened at #4 on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling 71,000 copies in its first week.[1] On 29 March 2007, the album was certified gold by the RIAA, signifying U.S. sales in excess of 500,000 units, while the longform video was certified double platinum on the same date.[2]
