ICUC Burns Supper Hanoi

A highlight of the expatriate social calendar for 16 years! Hanoi Burns Night guests enjoy an elegant night out in formal attire or national dress, including:

• Scottish dancing
• Malt whisky on each table plus a single malt tasting bar, free flow Rob Roy and whisky sour cocktails, and plenty of wine and beer
• Humorous speeches
• And a delightful meal including special haggis course

New this year: An even wider single malt selection, enhancements to the ambience and program, a new dance program, and an earlier start time in response to guest feedback.

IF YOU DON'T KNOW YOUR GUESTS' NAMES / MENU PREFERENCES AT TIME OF ORDER

When you place your order, you will be asked to submit names, menu selections, and email addresses for all of your guests. If you do not yet know the names of your guests, please input "John or Jane Doe." You may change the names and menu preferences of your guests until 4 Feb.

TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR ORDER

Several guests have reported problems with the Eventbrite interface. If you are having trouble with Eventbrite timing out or refusing your credit card transaction, please try the following steps:

1. Use a VPN to set your IP address outside Vietnam (preferably in the country where your credit card was issued). Because of the high volume of credit card fraud that originates in Vietnam, some vendors will decline transactions originating in the country.
2. Set your guest names to "Jane Doe" or "John Doe", pick default menu selections, and allow Eventbrite to copy guest and menu preference information from your first ticket to all subsequent tickets. This will make it easier to complete the ticketing process within the time allotted. You can log in to Eventbrite and change your guest names and menu selections after your tickets are issued.
3. Contact [email protected] to discuss alternate ticketing and payment arrangements.
