A MAJOR Gaelic festival has kicked off in Paisley today with a programme packed full of music and culture lined-up over the next week.
The Royal National Mòd has arrived back in the town for the first time in a decade with an opening night concert set to take place on Friday evening in the first full-scale show at Paisley Town Hall since its reopening.
“It’s wonderful to officially get this year’s event underway with the incredible sounds of Breabach at such a special venue like Paisley Town Hall. It’s been a decade since we brought the Mòd to Paisley and the town has already shown such warmth and enthusiasm for hosting this event once again. These relaxed sessions will provide a place for attendees and musicians to socialise and soak up the festival atmosphere throughout the week, with the Graham McLennan Trio first up to entertain audiences.
The Combined Rural Choirs' Competitions and Combined Area Choirs' Competitions will also return on Thursday and Friday next week bringing choral singers from across Scotland together, while the event’s fringe programme sees everything from history-making sporting clashes to late-night pub sessions and concerts from the brightest talent across the Gaeldom.
She said: “It is a huge honour and a lovely surprise to be named Gaelic Ambassador of the Year. The Gaelic language has been a constant in my life and is very important to me, without it I don’t know where I’d be or what I’d be up to today.
