Join us at Gray’s Inn from 20th – 26th January 2025 as we celebrate one of Scotland’s most cherished traditions: Burns Night! This special evening pays homage to the life and work of Scotland’s national poet, Robert Burns, with a feast of poetry, music, and a delicious traditional Scottish supper.
What is Burns Night?
Burns Night is an annual celebration of Robert Burns, a literary icon best known for works such as “Auld Lang Syne” and “Tam o’ Shanter.” Since his passing in 1796, Scots around the world have honoured his legacy on his birthday with a night of storytelling, poetry, and good cheer. Burns Night is a time to revel in Scottish culture, and here at Gray’s Inn, we’re bringing that same spirit of joy and tradition to the heart of London.
The Burns Supper at Gray’s Inn
The heart of any Burns Night celebration is the Burns Supper, and at Gray’s Inn, we’re going above and beyond to create an unforgettable evening. Our chefs have curated an exquisite menu inspired by the finest Scottish culinary traditions, featuring an Angus Beef feast, tea, coffee, petit fours. And of course, no Burns Supper would be complete without the ceremonial “Address to the Haggis” celebrating this beloved Scottish dish with the flair and passion it deserves.
A Night of Poetry, Music, and Tradition
To make the night even more special, add a traditional touch with the stirring sounds of live bagpipes. Let the majestic music set the perfect tone for your celebration, enhancing the authentic Scottish atmosphere and making your Burns Night experience truly memorable.
Whisky and Toasts
No Burns Night would be complete without raising a glass of Scotland’s finest whisky! Guests will have the opportunity to sample a variety of whiskies, perfectly paired with each course of the meal. Throughout the evening, traditional toasts will be made, including the famed “Toast to the Lassies” and the witty “Reply to the Laddies”, ensuring plenty of laughter and light-hearted banter.
