On which date is Burns Night celebrated each year?

Burns Night is celebrated each year on January 25th, the date that marks the birthday of the Scottish poet Robert Burns, who was born in 1759. This event is a celebration of his life and works, where people gather to enjoy traditional Scottish food, particularly haggis, and recite his poetry. The evening often features readings of his poems, singing of his songs, and speeches reflecting on his contributions to literature and Scottish culture.

The other dates listed do not correspond to celebrations associated with Robert Burns. January 1st is celebrated as New Year’s Day, while January 21st and January 31st do not have significant cultural or historical relevance connected to Burns. Therefore, January 25th stands out as the dedicated day for honoring this influential figure in Scotland’s literary heritage.
