Glasgow Vintage Vehicle Trust to host ‘unique’ and ‘entertaining’ family fun day

Sci-fi villain Darth Vader and his stormtroopers will be attending the event on Sunday.

Glasgow Vintage Vehicle Trust is hosting its annual family fun day on Sunday 30 July at Bridgeton Bus Garage.

Star Wars Imperial Scottish Garrison will be in attendance, with Darth Vader cutting the ribbon with his lightsaber to mark the opening of the fundraiser.

There will also be live music from The Michael Brawley Big Band and singer Sonja Smith who will be raising the roof with two sets.

The trust is putting on a display of over 130 classic buses, alongside fire appliances and lorries from the army and emergency services.

There will also be children’s paint-a-bus, model buses, veteran cycles and the Clippies Café.

Ed Bonner, a trustee for the charity said: GVVT trustee Ed Bonner said: “We're thrilled to be opening the doors for this event.

“Family day is an opportunity to see our vehicles and restoration work and have fun.

“It's a day not to be missed, we had a record attendance of 1500 people last year and with Star Wars headlining and the band playing two extended one-hour sets, we hope to welcome even more visitors this time."
