West End Festival – What a Start
It’s been an amazing start to #WEF2018 with such fabulous events and of course, the weather has been amazing!
There are still three weeks of the festival and plenty to see and do. With more gala days, another outdoor ceilidh coming up, gigs, walks and talks… there’s something for everyone and many events are free.
The West End Festival runs until Saturday, 30 June.
