As part of its ongoing 200th anniversary celebrations, venerable Scotch whisky brand The Macallan is collaborating with Cirque du Soleil to present a unique, immersive experience at The Macallan Estate.

The nightly shows promise a sensory extravaganza, set against the picturesque Scottish Highlands; an evening of performance, inspired stagecraft, and bespoke whisky tastings.

Jaume Ferràs, Creative Director at The Macallan, expressed, “Celebrating two centuries of unparalleled craftsmanship and tradition, this collaboration brings two iconic brands together, both dedicated to constant innovation; resulting in a one-of-a-kind experience which is uniquely inspired by the Highlands and the story of our brand so far.”

Cirque du Soleil Spirit runs nightly May 9 -31, at The Macallan Estate in Speyside. Tickets are priced at £200 per person and can be purchased here.
