Join us in January 2026 for a Burns Night Ceilidh celebrations to get your new year off to a dancing start.
Join us for some singing, dancing, haggis, neeps and tatties as celebrate the man who taught us about love, life, and talking to a stuffed sheep stomach.
This year we are hosting 3 evenings at 3 venues and you can join us on Burns Night itself! Here’s the event list:
23 Jan @ St Thomas Church
We’ll be piping in the haggis and you’ll get a free shot of whisky to toast it with. Julia’s Kitchen will be serving their Haggis, Neeps and Tatties along with Whisky Chocolate brownies for afters, while Fiddle Paradiddle keep you dancing the rest of the night – Get St Ts Burns tickets here
24 Jan @ The Bedford
Teaming up with the Bedford and Live Cannon, this will be a burns extravaganza! Along with an amazing supper from the Bedford’s kitchen, Live Cannon will be performing traditional Burns speeches along with Selkrk Grace and address to the haggis. Then we’ll kick in with a foot stomping Burns ceilidh to top the night off – Get you Bedford Burns tickets here
29 Jan @ Double-Barrelled, Reading
A more low-key event with no formal dinner, though we are hoping for some haggis being serve from a food van in some way! Reguardless, we will still pipe in and properly address a ceremonial haggis which you’d be welcome to have some after. All the usual high energy ceilidh dancing included. – Get your Double-Barrelled Burns tickets here
30 Jan @ Small Beer Brew Co
Again with Julia’s Kitchen will be serving their Haggis, Neeps and Tatties along with Whisky Chocolate brownies for afters, and we’ll pipe and address the haggis before you eat and fill the rest of the time with ceilidh dancing – Get Small Beer Burns tickets here
Which ever Burns Night you make it along to (or all if you’re keen!), we’ll make sure it’s the best burns night you’ve ever been to!
See you on the dance floor!
Mac and Wild is a good shout, nae the best shout, when looking for a meat and whisky pairing for any meal of the day. But we’ve got to say it’s their breakfast that keep us coming back for more. There’s nothing we could say that their beautifully curated Instagram account couldn’t say better, but we’ll have a go at describing their full Scottish: we’re talking black pudding, tattie scones, Lorne sausage and bone marrow beans, amongst other things. Even our vegetarian band member can’t say no (even though there are plenty of veggie options available to him)
Once you’ve loosened up with that 10k run, it’s time to jump on the Northern Line to Balham and join Fiddle Paradiddle for our St Andrews Day ceilidh! On Friday 29th and Saturday 30th we’ll be dancing the night away in the beautiful St Thomas’ (irl friend of Andrew) Church. The band will be calling the best dances on our books, playing some big loud folk tunes, and starting the party season with a bang! While you’re not dancing, get yourself some stovies made by our friends Julias Kitchen (included in the ticket price) and check out the offerings from our carefully curated pop-up bar.
