The Balloon Festival is a great event - and a perfect chance to visit Strathaven. The town centre is less than a minute walk from the main event and the small businesses are keen to look after the many visitors!

If you're visiting, why not pop in and say hello at Say It Gifts (2 Townhead Street). There's also plenty of brilliant cafes, takeaways, coffee shops and a fantastic selection of independent shops to browse too.
