Burns Night
January 27, 2024
Appalachian Highlanders Pipes and Drums is hosting Burns Night this year to celebrate the life of Scotland's national bard. Robert Burns was the 18th century Scottish poet - song writer - story teller who helped birth a Scottish renaissance that changed the world. As a Jacobite at heart, Burns was an avid proponent of the American Revolution and an ardent fan of George Washington, even writing an ode to celebrate George's birthday! We are thrilled to be hosting this evening's celebration at Glenrochie Country Club in Abingdon, VA. Come join us!

Tickets are $50 and include a traditional fine Scottish meal, entertainment, and non-alcoholic drinks.

A CASH BAR will be available.
