Featuring musicians from the acclaimed film Four Weddings and a Funeral this lively, fun event is not to be missed!
Event Note
If you have been to one of our Burns Night Ceilidhs before, this is a slightly different event. There’s no food this year and tickets are cheaper. You can buy a dram of whisky or other beverage from the bar to toast the haggis.
