IT IS less than four weeks till Campbeltown’s biggest whisky celebration. The Courier already has a stand booked for the Malts’ Festival’s Springbank open day on Thursday May 24. Kate Watt at Explore Campbeltown says there are still stand spaces available that day and the following day (Friday May 26) at Kilkerran’s open day. Ms Watt said: ‘For the Friday, as well as the usual craft and food stalls, Explore Campbeltown hopes to have some interactive stands to make it a bit of a distillery fun day. ‘Fiona Irwin from Wee Toon Warriors will be running some Whisky Warrior challenges. There are also stand spaces for charity or community groups to do fundraising, hopefully with a whisky theme.’
The whisky bar at Springbank served an endless succession of people in the sun last year.
