A long standing tradition will continue on Monday when the
Glasgow Fair Festival Family Day takes place at Ayr Racecourse.
A crowd of more than 4000 is expected at the track to welcome
Peppa Pig and her little brother George back to Ayr.
The cheeky little piggies will be making appearances at
intervals throughout the afternoon and there will be lots more for
the family to do with all sorts of entertainment.
There will be live shows and workshops from the Allstar Cheer
and Dance Company cheerleaders, fun fair rides, face painters, beat
the goalie from Ayr United and shows from leading children's
entertainer Gary Dunn.
In addition children will be able to test their riding skills on
an ecquisizer - the machine used by jockeys to simulate race
riding - and there will be a vinatge fire engines on display.
Ayr Racecourse Sales and Marketing Manager Lindsey Smith is
looking forward to a fun packed and busy afternoon and said : "You
keep hearing people telling you that Glasgow Fair in Ayr is not
what it used to be - but we are proud that our traditional
race day which dates back many, many years is still continuing and
thriving.
"Its a fantastic afternoon out for all the family and with the
line up of children's based entertainment we have allied to the
horse racing everyone should have a fun day !"
