Lenzie Community Festival


We’re delighted to bring you the Lenzie Community Festival on Saturday 19th August 2023!

The festival will be a celebration for all of the community, with stalls, lots of fun activities, food and a parade running from Lenzie Train Station to Ingleside.

If you’d like to join us for the parade, please gather at the Old Bank car park at the train station at 11.45am. Children can wear their youth organisation uniform, or fancy dress – or just come as they are and join in the fun!
