CELEBRATE SOLSTICE AT HIGHLAND PARK’S MIDWINTER SOCIAL
OLD TRUMAN BREWERY | 24-25 NOVEMBER 2016
Highland Park Single Malt Scotch Whisky, the ‘Orkney Single Malt with Viking Soul’, is taking over The Boiler House at London’s Old Truman Brewery for their Midwinter Social. Taking place over two evenings, the events will celebrate the longer nights in anticipation of Winter Solstice.
An important time of year in the Nordic calendar and at Highland Park’s home on Orkney, Winter Solstice marks the shortest day of the year and is typically celebrated with good friends, bonfires, music and dance.
The Highland Park Midwinter Social at The Boiler House on Brick Lane will bring to life this magnificent heritage through the following:
- Music from Kipps on Thursday 24 November and Friday 25 November
- A live set from DJ Finnebassen on Thursday 24 November
- Eelke Kleijn, internationally renowned DJ & producer of electronic dance music, will be playing a live set Friday 25 November
- Highland Park infused cocktails
- Nordic inspired food curated by Root + Bone
- Highland Park whisky tastings around a fire pit
- An interactive photo “bothy” for guests to enjoy
- A chance to meet Highland Park distillery workers from Orkney
Mike MacKenzie, Highland Park brand manager said: “Following the success of our Midsummer Social in June this year, we are looking forward to celebrating Highland Park’s Viking heritage once again at our Midwinter Social. With a bigger venue and more immersive experiences, the Midwinter Social is the perfect opportunity for guests to celebrate winter with friends.”
Thursday evening’s event will be broadcast to a global audience via Facebook live, and will feature live music sets from Kipps and Finnebassen, as well as a whisky tasting with global brand ambassador, Martin Markvardsen.
