Pay homage to Scotland’s best loved bard in style, with The Met’s very own Burns Night Ceilidh. Expect highland flings and reels to an infectious traditional soundtrack from the fiddle, whistle, accordion, guitar, double bass and drums of Head Over Reels Ceilidh Band. And don’t worry if you’ve never done a ceilidh before, there’ll be a professional caller on hand to teach the steps and you’ll be up there dancing in no time, locking arms, spinning around and generally having a right old Scottish knees-up!
“Top quality music, whirlwind fiddle playing and a killer rhythm section”
Sarah Allen (Flook) on Head Over Reels Ceilidh Band
The Met’s restaurant Automatic will be serving a special Burns Night menu on 26 and 27 January. Join us before the ceilidh for haggis, neeps and tatties. Call 0161 763 9399 to reserve a table.
