Renfrewshire Council

Date: Sunday 4 June 2023

Time: 12noon - 5pm

Venue: Robertson Park, Renfrew

Roll up, roll up, the circus is back in town! Renfrew Gala Day is back and better than ever, with a day full of fun, entertainment, and celebration of our local community.

Featuring face painting, balloon modelling, rugby tasters and circus skills, there's entertainment for everyone.

The funfair is back with thrilling rides and games for young and old, and the wee ones will love the selection of inflatable fun, provided by Renfrew based Ally Bally's Bouncy Castles.

We'll be showcasing the best of the area with local traders, community stalls and fundraisers. There will be homemade cakes, gifts, candles, crystals and homeware for sale. And Broadloan Community Garden (RAGG) will be selling a selection of locally grown plants and produce.

You will have plenty of chances to win with raffles, tombolas and lucky dips from a range of local groups including the Paisley Sea Cadets, 3rd Johnstone Girls' Brigade and Rotary Club of Renfrew.

Music and live performance will be provided on the live stage. You'll be entertained by Rockstar Cheer & Dance, Dream Believe Achieve and Karen E. Moir Dance & Drama. Trinity High School Rock Band, McCallum School of Music and Jhankar Beats will be providing tunes to dance to. And there will be a fantastic acoustic set from The Nohans.

As well as food stalls from local traders, there will be a tearoom in the McMaster Centre, serving delicious fresh cakes and drinks.

Renfrew Gala Day is a tradition that has been cherished by our community for over 40 years, and this year is set to be a great one! So mark your calendars and come along.

Volunteer to help at major events

For each event, we need volunteers to help us out. There are lots of different roles for our events volunteers. 

Volunteering is a great way to get skills and experience in working at major events. It's also a great way of getting out and about, meeting new and like-minded people, and making a valuable contribution to your community.

Send an email to Valerija Tkacenko, our Event Coordinator, at eventsvolunteers@renfrewshire.gov.uk if you'd like to volunteer.
