The Saltcoats Christmas Carnival was started many years ago to provide Christmas lights in Saltcoats – this evolved over the years and has become a full carnival. This provides a much needed free day out for families in the local community, when everything else related to Christmas is so expensive this event gives some relief from that.

The Saltcoats Men’s group meets every week in the Argyle Community Centre from 11am-1pm, offering a safe and welcoming space for men to chat over a game of snooker or pool.
