Join these events this summer

23/06/2024

Looking for something to do this summer? Look no further. There’s a host of events for all in the community…..and they’re free to enter.

We’re gearing up for a fantastic summer of fun, entertainment and activities catering for all ages across our centres and in local parks and spaces.

Don’t miss free big screen entertainment in Aberfeldy Square including the live broadcast of the Euro 2024 Semi Finals!

For the thrill-seeker, why not try your hand at paddle-boarding or cycling, or if you prefer things at a more leisurely pace you can catch a film or even join one of our cookery classes.

If that wasn’t enough, we have some great community festivals for residents in and around Teviot and Aberfeldy.  There will be an abundance of music, food and entertainers to get you and your family having fun.
