Push Off Early Tomorrow’s Saturday!

“Glasgow Tropicana”, pre-lunch drinks are free, fun and starcloth, there’s enough for everyone….

It’s that time of year again – the POETS Lunch is back and the theme is set, we’re having a tropical party you’ll never forget!

Join us for a lunch bursting at the seams with entertainment, with Tam Cowan limbo dancing his way through proceedings as our MC, joined by kitti and our house band and X Factor contestant, Chris Maloney, banging out the classic, cheesy tunes a la Barry Manilow and Wham!

We are once again supported by a colourful array of fabulous Scottish hospitality companies, who underpin our lunch with free-flowing drink and delicious food, prepared by a trio of fantastic chefs backed up by a brilliant young team.

Fundraising for HIT Scotland will be kicked off by Boogie Bingo and his ‘exotic’ prizes, followed by raffles and auctions filled with sumptuous prizes for everyone. Fundraising is vital to all that HIT Scotland does, allowing us to continue to empower inspirational development for the Scottish hospitality industry, through our scholarship programme.

All is not over as lunch comes to an end as the infamous POETS After Party kicks in with live music from Jade and Sax (vox and sax duo) and banging tunes from DJ Smithy.

Dress Code: Dress to party

Time: 12:00pm til late!

Please note, our payment terms are immediate. Event bookings are not confirmed until the invoice has been paid in full.
