Maybole is celebrating 500 years of
being a burgh over the next few months. Maybole Community Council
has secured funding from Ayrshire LEADER, Heritage Lottery, Ayrshire
Youth Arts Network and North Carrick Community Benefit Fund to
deliver a new and exciting project that will mark the 500th
anniversary of Maybole receiving its Burgh of Barony status in 1516.
To celebrate this momentous milestone the Community Council, in
partnership with local groups and organisations, is holding a series
of events and one of the first events to be held is a Burns Supper.
This will be held in Maybole Town Hall on Saturday, February 4 at
6.30pm.
This is a mixed event aimed at
both male and female guests and the evening will consist of a 5
course meal, guest speakers, recitations of the Bard’s poetry,
musical guests and the skirl of the pipes. The event will be
licensed with a full range of beverages available for purchase on
the night. Tickets are limited to 150 and cost of £25 per person.
They are available from Robert Green whose the contact details are:

Please note that tickets will only be reserved
when payment is made and will be on a first-come first-served
basis. Closing date for applications will be January 25, 2017.
The Maybole 500 project is part-funded by the
