A chance to join in with Scottish tradition and celebrate Burns Night awaits people visiting Glasgow in late January.

This annual event honours the life and work of Robert Burns, the poet and lyricist also known as the Bard of Ayrshire.

Observed across Scotland on January 25th every year, Burns Night features the traditional Burns supper, plenty of whisky and public readings of the writer's most famous poems.

Special events will take place at venues across Glasgow to celebrate Burns' unrivalled contribution to Scottish culture.

There will be a Burns Night Special at The Stand Comedy Club on Woodlands Road featuring host Susan Calman and several local acts, with tickets priced at £8.

Meanwhile, a Burns Night charity firewalking event is due to take place on the banks of the River Clyde.

Organised by learning disability charity Enable Scotland, the event will be held at the city's Alea Casino and invites people to conquer their fears by walking across red hot coals.

Participants must be over 18 to get involved, with a registration fee of £25 and minimum sponsorship of £60.

People seeking Glasgow hotels for the occasion will find a wide range of options at LateRooms.com, which recommends the Alamo Guest House.
