Enjoy a Picnic and Party at Crookston Castle. Starting with a colourful community parade, inspired by the theme Shining Together, the event will draw on the historic tradition of pageants, where communities came together to tell their stories through music, colour and performance, reimagined for modern Greater Pollok. At Castle Hill there will be a picnic and party, so bring a blanket, your own picnic, and enjoy a party at the foot of Glasgow’s last castle.
