It’s Bungo In The Back Lanes 2012 -4 so time to fill everyone in on the runners and riders.
We’ll have all your favourites – the beer gardens, tea gardens, children’s garden, plant stall, tombola, bottle stall and introducing our very first wheel of fortune (woo!) plus we’ve been inundated with info from residents about the stalls they are planning to hold.
We’ve got animators, DJs, musicians, masseurs, bakers, crafters, gardeners, martial artists, photographers, watercolourists, confectioners, chefs, card makers, de-clutterers, face painters, temporary tattooists, book sellers.
Some of the businesses holding stalls on the day are; Barefoot books, award-winning children’s books, Locavore cooking local and foraged food, Happy Holistics chair massage, Venues to Menus macaroons and cupcakes, crafts from Vintage Zebras, Finbo Deluxe and Sew Like Me, quirky homewares from Sparrow and Co, the world’s best sausage from Gusto & Relish and even the Avon lady. On the street rather than in the lanes, Merry-go-round are hosting a treasure hunt in store.
And that’s before we get to residents and charities, like the jams and preserves being sold to raise funds for the Glasgow Islay Gaelic Choir, Liz selling cakes and cards to raise funds for the Beatson Institute and Orangutan Appeal UK, Nicola’s amazing cupcakes, Helen’s lemonade, Lyndsay’s home-made cards, bric-a-brac, tai chi demonstrations, curry in a cup, BBQs, Nicole’s clothes and books at 4 Moray Place, the return of Candylicious and the wonderful array of local artists including Karen Cairns, The Square Slice Boys, Sarah Barr, Kato Yeah and Laura Hudson Mackay.
For children there’s the Animated Emporium Of Curiosities and the children’s garden with its bouncy castle, face painters, outdoor games, bubbles and a sand pit for the wee ones.
A music lover? We have DJ sets from La Roche Rumba, live music from Dean Queasy and the Viennese Ensemble plus more DJs in gardens and live music in the Glad Cafe garden.
There really is something for everyone in all the lanes and don’t forget the event this year stretches from Nithsdale Road to Vennard Gardens, so bring your friends, suncream and a brolly and prepare to party on the cobbles.
