Come join us for an Outlandishly exclusive evening at Hillsborough’s Colonial Inn, where the world of Outlander collides with the town's rich history. Experience the sounds of Scotland with bagpiper Andrew Prioli, savor three premium Scottish whiskies, and enjoy excerpts from Diana Gabaldon’s The Fiery Cross, read by a native Scot and Fraser clan member. Discover the true story behind the Battle of Alamance and the Regulator Movement with Outlander NC, and delve into the world of battlefield surgeons—exploring their techniques, history, and how spirits as medicine played a crucial role. Hearty hors d'oeuvres and non-alcoholic beverages will also be provided throughout the evening.
Attendees will receive a complimentary entry into our Highland Park Package Raffle, featuring a Highland Park 18, two whiskey tumblers, and two whiskey-tasting glasses. The winner must be present to claim their prize.
