Burns Night is set to light up Penderyn this January as The Red Lion Inn hosts its annual celebration of Robert Burns, bringing together food, poetry, music and Welsh whisky in the heart of Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons).

Taking place on Monday 26 January 2026, the evening pairs a six-course Burns Night taster menu with live bagpipes and a complimentary tasting from Penderyn Distillery — a collaboration that blends Scottish tradition with a strong local identity.

Events like this play an important role in the winter visitor economy, offering reasons to get out, meet friends and enjoy destination-led dining experiences during the quieter months.

For visitors staying locally or travelling into the National Park, it’s a chance to experience Penderyn’s hospitality at its most atmospheric.

Advance booking is essential due to limited spaces.
