Andrzejki

Polskie eventy w MK are bringing Andrzejki to Old Stratford Community Hall on Saturday 28 November, a night built around the Polish tradition of St Andrew's Eve. If you've never come across it, Andrzejki is a night for omens and fortune-telling, and this one leans right into that. The centrepiece is lanie wosku — pouring molten wax through a keyhole and reading the shape it makes to divine the future — alongside other traditional games, food, drinks and a welcome shot to get things moving.

On the music side, the Northampton band Nasi Kapela will be playing live throughout the night, so there's plenty of dancing to go with the divination. Between the band and the games, it's a full evening rather than just a quick drink. The organisers have noted that places are limited, and if you're coming on your own and want to sit at a table with others, you'll need to send them a private message at least a week in advance.

It's an over-18s night with a smart-elegant dress code, so it's more of a dressed-up affair than a casual pub trip. Doors open at 19:00, and the main action runs from 20:00 until midnight. Tickets are £35, and the venue is Old Stratford Community Hall, Deanshanger Road, Old Stratford, Milton Keynes MK19 6NL.
