Barshaw Gala Day

Local musicians and dancers wowed crowds throughout the day and there was plenty to keep the kids active with football, rugby, and circus skills activities taking place in the park.

Barshaw Gala Day

There were a variety of stalls and food vendors on site, and the funfair and inflatables ensured there was something on offer for all ages.

Barshaw Gala Day

The ever-popular ride-on-train was also running throughout the day and the model boating competition on the newly-refurbished pond provided a spectacular scene.

Barshaw Gala Day

The next event in Renfrewshire is Sma’ Shot Day, taking place on Saturday 1 July. Find out more at www.paisley.is
