Burns Night, which celebrates the life and works of Scotland’s national bard Robert Burns, known for penning famous poems like Auld Lang Syne, To A Mouse and Tam O’Shanter.
Burns, whose work was inspired by Scotland’s rural experience, traditions and culture, is considered Scotland’s national poet, and his poems have become an important part of the country's national identity.
The annual Scottish event, which falls on January 25 every year, is closely connected with food and drinks, with people often consuming lots of haggis and whiskey as part of a traditional feast called the Burns Night Supper.
