Secret Scottish Event in London

Last week Reel Time Events were taken to London to organise the glitziest Burn’s night events in the heart of London’s business district to 250 guests.

Reel Time Events organised a whole evening of entertainment to create a magical evening for our client. What Scottish event would be complete without the right attire? Guests were provided with kilts and thistle button holes to set the scene for this glamorous Scottish corporate event.

The Reel Time Ceilidh Band also included a fiddle to provide traditional, authentic folk music. On the fiddle we had Gemma Donald, hailed one of the finest fiddlers in the country; here is a video so you can see this talented musician in action: Gemma Donald and The Reel Time Band

The Folk Band played during pre-drinks before Roddy The Piper piped guests into dinner. Roddy also joined The Reel Time Ceilidh Band to provide a rocking start to the meal. Alongside the Ceilidh Band, guests enjoyed watching Roddy The Piper address the haggis and perform the Selkirk Grace. After dinner guests enjoyed a highland dance performance alongside the band displaying the finest highland fancy footwork before they got the chance to experience the energy and fun of the ceilidh.

As well as show spot dancers, the after dinner speaker Des Clarke provided some brilliant stand up comedy which was followed by a combined whisky and cheese tasting.

During dinner, the Reel Time Scraggly Cats were joined on stage by 8 Scottish dancers. Putting on a Scottish show that showcased the best of traditional and contemporary culture. With ballads from Robert burns, through to mini kilts dancer routines.

The band came back later in the evening to put the guests through their paces with their rocking brand of ceilidh music. Guests danced along with our 8 dancers and much fun was had!!.

To finish off the evening, the band played through a selection of Brit pop from the last 4 decades, keeping a thoroughly British feel to the event.
