You have heard us speak about it here on Dunoon Community Radio and we hope you have kept up with the updates on social media with much reference to previous years with hundreds of photos on Face Book.
This year with new members joining the small committee, the Kirn Gala celebrates it’s 21st Anniversary and looks forward to the future by putting the emphasise on the original philosophy of the Kirn Gala by presenting a family event providing free entry with fee paying Charity/Community market stalls raising money or promoting their organisation.
For this the largest Charitable event in Cowal a carnival atmosphere is encouraged with stall holders presenting novel and original ways of enticing visitors to their stalls.
Attention is given to the many young folk who attend the event by providing special attractions during the event.
To celebrate the 21st Anniversary the traditional entertainment from the stage will show case the talents of many local youngsters celebrating 21 years of Kirn Gala and looking forward to the next 21 years.
