Pitlochry New Year Street Party - The Pitlochry New Year Street Party committee would like to thank everyone who joined us on the afternoon of January 1. Once again, the event was a tremendous success, showcasing Pitlochry’s unique blend of Highland hospitality and placing the town firmly on the map as a brilliant destination to toast the year ahead. Despite a cold breeze and the occasional flutter of snow, visitors from near and far came sensibly wrapped in hats and scarves - dancing enthusiastically to the cèilidh, with music from Andrew Knight and the West Telferton Caledonian Dance Band - enjoying a cup of hot mulled wine, and soaking up the sights and sounds The Vale of Atholl Pipe Band Vale of Atholl Pipe Band. We are grateful to all the local businesses, community partners and volunteers whose donations, support and hard work make this event possible.
Looking forward, the committee will continue to work with local partners whilst also exploring options for additional professional event-management support. As numbers increase, our aim is to ensure the Street Party thrives for future generations, while continuing to raise thousands of pounds for local charities and community groups. If you believe you can offer support, or would like to volunteer at future events, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us on [email protected].
