DUNDEE CELEBRATIONS st andrew's day fiddler
SUNDAY 30th NOVEMBER 2008


St Andrew's Day is a day to celebrate Scotland both at home and abroad, and events will take place in all six Scottish cities and around the world.

The centrepiece of Dundee's celebrations will be Radio Tay infront of the gazebo in the City Centre, with music, highland dancers and a live broadcast of the Bill Torrance Show.

Take your chance to sample traditional Scottish fayre, win prizes for knowing all about Scotland or enter your child in the Highlander Tot competition.

Scotland's music and dance will also be celebrated at the Wellgate and Forum Centres, while at the Overgate you can get your free souvenir picture taken ‘on top of Ben Nevis’ or download your photo to send to friends. The Steeple Church will join the celebrations with a lunchtime concert.
