🎄✨ Merry Christmas from Girvan Tourist Information Point ✨🎄

As we celebrate this festive season, we want to take a moment to reflect on the wonderful year we’ve had and share our gratitude with all who have supported us 🎅🎁

This year, we’ve been thrilled to personally welcome thousands of visitors to Girvan, helping them discover the charm of our town and its surroundings. It’s been an absolute pleasure to share our local knowledge and ensure everyone has had a memorable experience 🏖️🌟

None of this would be possible without the incredible support from our dedicated volunteers – your time, passion, and enthusiasm help bring Girvan to life. A huge thank you to each and every one of you

We’d also like to give a special shoutout to the incredibly talented crafters who sell their beautiful creations in our craft shop. Your work adds such a wonderful, unique touch to our offerings, and we’re proud to showcase your talents to all who visit 🧶🎨🖼️

A special thank you as well to the musicians and artists who have supported our visitor events throughout the year. Your performances and creativity have brought so much life and vibrancy to the Tourist Information Point 🎶🎭✨

Additionally, we’re very grateful for the support we’ve received from local organisations, partners, and funders. Your backing helps keep the service running, ensuring we can continue welcoming visitors and sharing the magic of Girvan for years to come

Wishing all our wonderful visitors, volunteers, supporters, and the wider community a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 🎉🎄

Local Piper Sophie Quinn

Unfortunately the passengers from the Silver Wind cruise ship were unable to disembark in Girvan this afternoon due to the wind We had arranged for them to be welcomed by Sophie Quinn, a young piper from Girvan Academy Sophie very kindly offered to brave the wind and play a tune anyway so we could share a virtual welcome to Girvan Thank you so much to Sophie for playing, Girvan Academy for supporting us and our volunteer Pauline Forsyth for arranging We hope the passengers, crew and all our followers enjoy Sophie playing ‘Green Hills of Tyrol’ Please send her a wee round of applause 👏 👏👏

Davie Anderson - Braes o' Killiecrankie

A massive thanks to Davie Anderson Music for entertaining cruise ship visitors, tourists and locals at Girvan Tourist Information today. Needless to say his Scottish folk tunes went down particularly well with the international audience who thoroughly enjoyed the local welcome. We were very busy today and the TIP volunteers worked hard with almost 100 visitors stopping by to ask for information, buy local crafts, and of course, listen to the music. We also had volunteers down at the harbour to help welcome cruise ship passengers. We are delighted that Davie would like to come back and play for visitors again in the future. If you’re a fan of his music, you will be pleased to know we also have his cd’s for sale in our shop.

TIP Open Day Sunday 24th March

John and Jennifer Stewart also played and sang a few tunes at our open day and we were delighted to have them along. We really appreciate all the musicians who gave up their time to support our fundraising event. Lots of people have commented on how fantastic it was to have live music as they enjoyed their cream teas and cake 🍰 and we agree! We really hope local musicians can continue to join us over the spring and summer as we open our doors again to warmly welcome tourists to our town.

TIP Open Day, Sunday 24th March 2024

We were so pleased that a few local musicians offered to play some live music during our open day including a set from David Perkins. It helped to create an uplifting atmosphere for our visitors and we hope to have more music sessions throughout the season. We are very passionate about showcasing and celebrating local musicians, makers and heritage to visitors as part of their Girvan experience.
