Alloway
If you’d prefer to learn more about Robert Burns before you raise a glass, the Official Robert Burns Birthplace Museum is now open in Alloway, Ayrshire, and this is the place to head for extensive history and fascinating facts surrounding Robert Burns, such as manuscripts and personal artefacts, which helped make the man we cherish for poems such as, ‘To A Louse’, ‘Tam O Shanter’, ‘To A Haggis’ and ‘Auld Lang Syne’.
Aberdeen
Head to the University of Aberdeen for a special Burns evening, whereby Sheena Blacklaw and Derick McClure present ‘ The Ploughman Songmaker’, and all for just £3.
St. Andrews
Burns Night with Daimh takes place in St. Andrew’s Byre Theatre, and you can expect a traditional evening where much merriment will ensue. Tuck into some haggis, of which Robert Burns himself called the ‘great chieftain o’ the puddin’-race’.

Burns: Rough Cut takes place tonight at Brunton Theatre where, for £11 you can expect a traditional supper of venison pie and scotch broth soup followed by a very ‘raw and edgy’ performance of Robert Burns’s diaries.
