Council Leader Robin Currie: “It can be easy to take for granted how important the arts, culture and sport are to the daily lives of everyone in our local communities and the contribution which our festivals and events make to the 51³Ô¹ÏÃâ·ÑApp and Bute economy.
“We are really fortunate to be able to take advantage of such a wide and diverse range of events, some already well established and others more recent, all of them combining to enhance, entertain and energise our communities with the help of this vital support from the SEF.â€
