FAIR E'EN   "FOLLOW THE BAND"

Thursday 26th JUNE 2008

Unfortunately due to legislation, gone are the days bands could accommodate local requests and appear at short notice. For future years, please note, band secretaries require at least 5 weeks notice, before the Fair for special requests to appear, as application to take the band out on the street has to be submitted to Falkirk Council 28 days prior to the event.

We are sorry that this could effect anyone's plans for the Fair E'en, Thursday night, but we have to follow the instructions issued to the band secretaries. This is now a required notification that the website wishes to bring it to the attention of our town.
