Bungo at the Bells 2007

December 14th, 2007 at 2:37 pm (Strathbungo Society, Events) ~ Bungo Blog

This year’s community Hogmanay celebrations will be held outside 23 Moray Place, in the block between Queen Square and Marywood Square. As ever there’ll be music, the big countdown and a real community atmosphere. Bring the kids, pets and friends!

The event will kick off at 11.30pm with a procession to rouse the neighbourhood. To take part bring yourself and a noise-making instrument (anything goes – from a tambourine to a saucepan and spoon!) to Nithsdale Rd, outside Grianach, and prepare to march the squares.

The event will only be cancelled if the big Glasgow and Edinburgh street parties are called off due to the weather.
