The 10 day Dumfries shindig called the Big Burns Supper will run from 20 to 29 January next year and they have announced the first raft of big names that will grace the occasion. They include Lulu, King Creosote and Nicola Benedetti. Along with those headliners are the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain, Charlie Landsborough, Seth Lakeman and Hackney Colliery Band. The celebration will see return of the fourth version of the Le Haggis cabaret show.  The show used to be in the Spiegltent, but it is now in Easterbrook Hall.

Family Friendly

Lulu opens the event on the 20 January and then the good folk of Dumfries will witness a spectacle on the 22 January when 2,000 people and more will take part in a carnival on the theme of Tam O' Shanter. The Scottish Bard was born in 1759 and the full timetable of events was published most fittingly on St Andrew’s Day, 30 November at 17:59 in the evening.
