Burns Night

Burns Night takes place on the evening of the 25th of January. It is a cherished Scottish tradition that pays tribute to the life and works of the poet Robert Burns, who is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland.

This special night is marked by festivities that honour Burns’ contribution to Scottish culture, particularly through his poetry and songs. Traditionally, Burns Night is celebrated with a Burns Supper, a convivial gathering that typically includes the recitation of Burns’ poetry, the enjoyment of Scottish delicacies like haggis, neeps, and tatties, and of course, the savouring of Scotch whisky.

The evening often involves performances of Burns’ songs, readings of his poetry, and reflections on his enduring legacy. Burns Night is not just a celebration of one poet’s works; it’s a manifestation of Scottish heritage, a night of cultural pride, and a time for people around the world to connect with Scottish traditions.
