OPENING RECEPTION AND PRIZE CEREMONY £6/£5

Bloody Scotland cocktails will be on hand for all as we officially launch the 2024 festival and witness the awarding of the McIlvanney Prize and Bloody Scotland Debut Prize. Mingle with this year’s authors and contenders before master of ceremonies, TV and radio presenter Bryan Burnett, will lead us into the much-anticipated awards and interview the winners on stage. 

Following the conclusion of the prize ceremony, the Stirling Schools Pipe Band will lead a piped procession of authors and readers up King Street and past the Corn Exchange to the Albert Halls in time for the first event of the evening.
