Biggar Introduction Night

Nominations are being sought for key positions in this year’s Beltane Festival. The Peebles March Riding & Beltane Queen Festival Committee is seeking nominations for the positions of Cornet, Warden of Neidpath and Crowning Lady.

Tonight saw Cornet's Lass Caitlin Hamilton with her support Rianna Sterricks taking part in the Galashiels Lindean rideout.

We hope everyone had a great Beltane. It was great to see the town turned red and white and the work that had gone into house decorations. The Beltane hut will be open this Thursday 26th and Friday 27th June, from 6:30pm until 9pm, for returns.

After careful consideration, following the slightly cooler start to the day, and the predicted cloud cover in the next couple of hours, the decision has been taken to revert to the church steps for the ceremony. Suitable actions will be taken to encourage children to sit whenever they can and a water will be available for all of them.
