Burns Night: Symphonic Sessions with the CBSO at Herbert’s Yard

We’re thrilled to welcome the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO) to Herbert’s Yard for a very special Burns Night edition of Symphonic Sessions — bringing world-class live orchestral music to Longbridge for the very first time.

After four incredible, sold-out years of Symphonic Sessions at Hockley Social Club, this much-loved collaboration enters a brand new chapter. For one night only, the CBSO take over Herbert’s Yard with soaring strings, stirring arrangements and a celebration of Scottish musical heritage — the perfect antidote to the January blues.

Expect iconic Scottish melodies, Burns Night classics and the unmistakable magic of a live orchestra performed in an intimate, atmospheric setting. Whether you’re a long-time Symphonic Sessions regular or joining us for the first time, this is set to be a truly memorable evening.

Make a night of it by arriving early to enjoy food and drinks before the performance. Greidy’s will be serving up mouth-watering wings and strips on the night, with additional traders to be announced. Our bar will be fully stocked and open throughout the evening.

This is Herbert’s Yard doing what we do best — bringing exceptional culture, great food and brilliant people together under one roof.
