Here are some of the opportunities that I’m aware of to celebrate Burns Nicht in Cape Town.
On Monday 21 January we will be hosting our annual Burns Nicht dance class in Fish Hoek.
The Pinelands Caledonian Society Burns Supper will be on Saturday 26 January 2013 at the Catholic Church Hall at 18:30 for 19:00, cost R130.
The Cape Town Caledonian Society’s Burn’s Nicht event will be on Saturday 9 February 2013 at the Edgemead Community Centre and will be something different. This will be a joint function with the Cape Town Caledonian Pipe Band and will feature students and staff from the Gordonstoun School in Scotland who will be helping provide the entertainment. There will be Burns songs, poetry, together with the “Address to a Haggis” and, of course, “The Immortal Memory”. Tickets are likely to be in the region of R180 each and will include Haggis, a Spit braai and pudding.
As you can see there is no shortage of options to commemorate Robbie Burn's birth and eat haggis!
