As the aeroplane flies, Scotland and New Zealand are separated by 11,113.48 miles. Yet in a cultural and literary sense, the distance isn't quite so great. Join us for a vibrant celebration of the poetic connections between the two nations, based on a shared love of performance and music. Featuring special guests including Mohamed Hassan, Dominic Hoey, Jackie Kay, Becky Manawatu, Hollie McNish, and Michael Pedersen - a rich exchange of culture and creativity awaits. Plus, we'll be joined by the amazing Gemma Cairney for a DJ set to see out the evening.
Supported by British Council New Zealand and the Pacific.
