We will also ask each gorgeous Ghirl to bring along a gift for a local child and these will be distributed to those who are sick or disadvantaged before the sleigh bells ring on Christmas Eve.

The phenomenal prize for our brand new ‘Fly High NY’ Draw has been very generously donated by the Ellen Kane Trust. It includes a stunning package for two people to New York City including return premium economy flights from Glasgow with British Airways and three nights’ accommodation in a double room in a hotel near Times Square.

The package is valid for 12 months from December 3, 2016; dates are subject to flight and hotel availability.

With an entry fee of only £10, our Ghirls on the night can enter as many times as they like and one very lucky lady will go home with a pretty special Christmas present!

So dig out your party kit Ghirls and join us for what is sure to be a magical, heart-warming night to celebrate all that is wonderful about the Celtic Family.

The cost for a table of 10 is £450 or places can be purchased on an individual basis at £45pp but don’t delay as availability is now limited.

All funds raised will support our 2016 Christmas Appeal which aims to help local families and pensioners who face poverty and hardship and a number of charities who care for those experiencing the torment of homelessness or other disadvantage.

Thank you so much for your wonderful support!
