Grahamston Gala Day 2019: Community ready to celebrate annual event
Victoria Park will host all the fun tomorrow as live acts such as Madeline Brown, Ross Fairweather and David Aird take to the stage.
Of course, there’ll also be a host of activities at the fourth Grahamston Gala Day to keep youngsters amused, including a fun fair, a games stall, a Zoo Lab show, W3L Wrestling and fantasy ponies.

Angie McArthur, who is helping to organise the event, said: “We are now in our fourth year and by far this has been the most difficult but hopefully our best to date.
“We’ve organised for more entertainment that will hopefully pull in more of an audience and appeal to everyone.
“We’re hoping that the weather will be kind to us again this year so that our retinue can experience the day in the best possible way. The kids have worked really hard and we’re all very proud of them.
