A PUB in South Queensferry is hosting ten days of festivities to celebrate St Andrew's Day.

A ten-day real ale and wine festival will coincide with a raft of entertainment at the Ferry Tap, High Street.

Alongside 11 guest Scottish ales on tap will be a selection of wines, as well as a special menu inspired by the festival tipples.

Pub manager, Linda Gamble said: "Customers were asking 'why don't we celebrate St Andrew's Day?' so I decided to do this to mark the occasion.

"The ale and wine festival will run from this Friday until the Sunday when we will have a piper and Scottish singing and dancing to celebrate St Andrew's Day."

The events kick off on Friday with live music and food and drink, a competition night follows on Saturday and there will be theme nights, a race night, karaoke and a quiz night throughout the rest of the festival.

The celebrations will culminate in a St Andrew's Day shindig on Sunday, November 30.
