Overview

Celebrate Robert Burns with a traditional Scottish supper. A night of poetry, song, and celebration awaits!

Join us for an unforgettable Burns Supper in honor of Scotland’s national poet, Robert Burns. This cherished tradition will be held at the St. Francis Yacht Club, for an evening filled with poetry, piping, whisky, and warm camaraderie.

The Caledonian Club of San Francisco proudly celebrates the 259th Anniversary of the Bard’s birth with a night steeped in ritual, revelry, and remembrance. Guests will enjoy a traditional supper, stirring performances, and toasts echoing centuries of Scottish pride and poetic brilliance.
