A highlight of the Ventnor Winter Gardens calendar is our renown Supper celebrating the life of the Bard with Master of Ceremonies Jason Mack.

There's the traditional food: cock-a-leekie soup (leeks, chicken stock, barley), haggis, neeps (swedes, fresh vegetables) and tatties (potatoes) - roast beef or vegetarian options are available at prior notice - and cranachan – (whisky, honey, raspberries) with a complementary dram on arrival.

Plus there's all the usual traditional music, toasts, readings and parades.

The evening costs £24.95 and tickets can be bought from the Winter Gardens or online.
