Lace up your ghillies and get in some practice ahead of Burns Night at our special after-hours Cèilidh event.
Many traditional Scottish country dances, such as the Dashing White Sergeant or the Reel of the 51st, have names that reference the longstanding relationship between Scotland and the British Army.
To celebrate this historic connection ahead of Burns Night, join us for an evening of Scottish dancing and music at our after-hours Cèilidh.
Accompanied by a live Scottish country dance band, expert Cèilidh caller and instructor Simon Wales will lead an evening of dancing suitable for all abilities.
