Enjoy an evening full of wit, and a touch of the supernatural with Royal Mile’s annual Oscar Wilde Night.
This year, the festivities will be full of spirits, quite literally, as we celebrate Wilde’s beloved tale The Canterville Ghost.
Upon your arrival, you’ll be welcomed with a specialty cocktail inspired by Wilde himself. As the evening continues, indulge in a four-course dinner while actors read excerpts from The Canterville Ghost. We’ll provide the chills, laughs, and spectacular food and drinks.
Arrive in your most elegant or ghostly attire, just as Wilde himself might have chosen. We’ll ensure the space and the menu are dressed to impress as well.
The event is $60 per person and includes a four-course meal, two cocktail pairings, dramatic readings from The Canterville Ghost, Oscar Wilde anecdotes, and an evening full of phantom fun.
