Southside Festival
Last night we went along to listen in on a meeting about the upcoming Southside Festival taking place in Queens Park on 28 June 2008.
Its still in the very early stages at the moment and they are still forming proposals for what the day will actually entail.
The theme of the festival is apparently "Heritage" but I think they are open to all suggestions of involvement so I wouldn't let that worry you.
While the festival is going to be called the Southside Festival - its not going to actually cover the whole Southside. (Well not in its first year) It's only going to cover Langside, Strathbungo, Battlefield, Govanhill and the edge of Cathcart/ Mount Florida - though if you are outside this area they still would like you to be invovled but you'll have to hold your event in the Quens Park area. The intention seems to be, that they see this day as a main focus which will act as an umbrella to promote all the rest of the events/ gala days and festivals which take place in the Southside during the summer.
They are also very keen for people to get involved so if anyone has any ideas then they should contact Counciller James Dornan (James.Dornan@glasgow.gov.uk) or come along to the next meeting 7:00pm, 22 January at Queens Park Church, 170 Queens Drive.
