LAUGHTER ON THE LINKS

Submitted by Editor on

Leith Festival is one of the oldest in Edinburgh. 

It dates back to 1907 when a Badge Day was first held to raise funds for Leith Hospital.

Saturday’s Gala enjoyed bright sunshine, and gusty conditions which ensured owners of hats and stall pagodas never knew quite what to expect next.

The event included wide open spaces …

pals you wished you hadn't let talk you into this …

ghostly perils survived …

and the simple science of splurge.

Roll on Gala Day 2025!
