Leith Gala Day with Duncan Place

Duncan Place Gala events
Come and join us for Leith Gala Day next Saturday, 8th June
We'll have a big marquee at Leith Gala Day this year across the road on Leith Links. Come and say hello! We're also going to offer a few free activities (from our community events programme) for folks to get involved with on the day.
Where will we be? Look for the big white marquee just behind Leith Links Playpark. On the same patch of grass (but on the opposite end) as the John Rattray golfing statue and exercise equipment.
