Join the Nest Collective online for a night bedecked in tartan and tam o’shanters, with whisky flowing and floorboards shaking, all in celebration of Scotland’s favourite son, Robert Burns.
Dance along at home to a live ceilidh band (with demonstration dancers!), listen to contributions from celebrated musicians & invited guests, and enjoy the Burns ceremony itself.

Join in with the festivities:
Our very own Ceilidh Liberation Front band will provide the soundtrack to these ceilidh dances specially re-purposed for spaces large or small, for groups, couples or solo dancers – no experience is necessary.
Come on in, don’t be shy. Lace up your dancing shoes and dosie-do before your dinner!
Drams will be raised, sporrans polished, lassies toasted, dosies do’ed, willows stripped, and homage paid to Rabbie Burns in the most unruly fashion!
This special live broadcast will available for free on YouTube, so everyone can enjoy.
We’re very excited to be holding four Burns Ceilidh events this January:
• Burns Night: Online • Tuesday 25th January
• Burns Night Ceilidh • Friday 28th January
London’s most radical and vivacious ceilidh band. Liberating the dancefloor with their energetic new regime of folk dance, they breathe vigour and vitality into the traditional ceilidh, whilst honouring its roots and traditions.
