CELEBRATE BURNS NIGHT IN SCOTTISH STYLE
Alexander Nasmyth, Robert Burns, Scottish National Portrait Gallery (manipulation of work)
We have teamed up with Hotel du Vin in Edinburgh to offer one lucky couple the chance to celebrate Scots cultural icon, Robert Burns, by sampling the best Scotland has to offer in the vibrant cultural capital of Edinburgh. From stunning skylines and bustling festivals to sandy beaches and Michelin star restaurants, Edinburgh has something for everyone and this winter will be offering a jam-packed programme of events – Scotland’s Winter Festivals - which celebrates the best of Scottish music, arts, food and drink and entertainment and culminates with Burns Night on 25 January.
Scots and Scots at heart, both at home and abroad will be coming together to celebrate our national bard, one of Scotland’s favourite icons encapsulating the very essence that makes Scots Scottish – creative, proud and confident. Beginning with a dram of whisky in the Whisky Snug at 7pm, guests will then indulge in a three course dinner with wine and more whisky in the Burke & Hare dining room. Entertainment will be provided from Edinburgh’s Mercat Tours with two actors reciting Burns poetry and telling stories from his life between courses. The lucky winners will also enjoy a luxurious overnight stay at Hotel du Vin Edinburgh.
If you’re not lucky enough to win, for just £45pp you too can enjoy a dramatic Burns Supper at Hotel du Vin Edinburgh. Call 0131 247 4900 to book.
