Burns Night Events 2025

Burns Night is a highlight of the year for us and for the 2025 celebrations we have five themed nights lined up for you, all with a significant Yorkshire twist.

What is Burns Night?

Burns Night is an annual celebration of Scotland’s most famous poet – a man called Robert Burns. Born in Ayr, Burns was more than just a poet. He produced hundreds of poems, songs and letters. You no doubt may have heard (or even sang!) ‘Auld Lang Syne’ when ringing in the New Year? In all he penned more than 550 poems and songs before his death in 1796.

The Tradtion

Burns Night itself marks the anniversary of Robert Burns’ birth on 25 January 1759 and the traditional Burns supper is an evening event that celebrates his life and work.

The 'Yorkshire Twist'

We like to respect tradition here at Spirit of Yorkshire, but do things our own way. Our Burns Night events are no different and they all include our Filey Bay Single Malt Whisky. Made in and of Yorkshire.
