Galleon to host Killie panto

Annual festive show to be hosted in leisure centre as Palace Theatre makeover continues

- ROSS DUNN

Kilmarnock’s annual pantomime will be held in the Galleon this year.

Sleeping Beauty will be performed in the leisure centre as renovation work continues on the Palace Theatre.

Last year’s festive show was held at a big top tent at Ayrshire Athletics Arena.

The giant circus tent was ripped down during a red weather warning sparked by Storm Eowyn in January this year.

This year’s panto will move back to the town centre to a new “purpose-built Galleon Auditorium”.
