About A Whisky Tasting Under The Stars

Listed Under Nights Out Events / Food and Drink Events / Theatre Events

Nestled at the foot of a volcano in Edinburgh, Dynamic Earth is the UK’s leading science centre and planetarium.

The SMWS is collaborating with the team to bring you an immersive, interactive and enlightening whisky-fuelled journey through the wonders of the universe – from witnessing the Big Bang to marvelling at the Aurora Borealis.

Join hosts Dr Alastair Bruce, Planetarium Manager, and Logan Shaw, Society Ambassador, for a stellar experience that will whisk you away to explore Earth's epic tale.

Sip on five drams of whisky while toasting our planet's wonders in an unforgettable setting. With a 360-degree viewing screen and immersive surround sound, this cosmic collaboration promises to be a night of astronomical delight along with out-of-this-world whiskies.

Please note, this is an external event taking place at Dynamic Earth, Holyrood Road, EH8 8AS
