Gibson House Hogmanay Dinner 2019 @ Gibson House Museum

Celebrate the Scottish New Year celebration Hogmanay with a program of entertainment and a candlelit dinner served in the historic dining room and kitchen.

While enjoying a menu inspired by 19th-century Scottish cookbooks, experience the tradition of the ‘First Footer’ along with a lively program of Hogmanay stories, poetry readings and early Ontario music played on period instruments, led by Ian Bell.

Dinner is inspired by Scottish communities in 19th century, based on food grown on the Gibson farm in the mid-19th century.
