Hello and welcome to this year’s summer edition of our Love Paisley magazine.

from Love Paisley Magazine Issue 5 Spring/Summer 2023

Heading to Paisley for some shopping, a catch up with friends or one of our events?

As thoughts turn to longer days and lighter nights, we’re shining a spotlight on those Paisley food and drink venues with outdoor seating where you can make the most of any summer sunshine. We’re also speaking to the team behind Paisley’s favourite independent fashion boutique and meeting the woman who has been taking care of the lingerie needs of thousands of women across Renfrewshire and beyond for almost forty years.

All that sparkles! We hear the stories of the firms responsible for four fantastic jewellers in the town centre. Keeping it in the family! We meet the father and son continuing the family tradition of exceptional highland wear and bespoke tartans. And from carrying on one family’s love of the great outdoors to the new kids on the block kicking up a storm with luxury sneakers…

We have news on the return of Paisley’s CarFest to the town centre as well as all you need to know about this summer’s BRICKLIVE trail, Mythical Beasts!

Plus, we have your one stop guide to keeping creative kids occupied this summer with PACE and Diane Mitchell Music School.

We hear how two very different organisations are breathing new life into famous Paisley buildings and how a hobby of the past is making a comeback! And news too of the Royal National Mòd’s return to Paisley this year.

Taking place in Paisley town centre from Friday 13th – Saturday 21st October 2023, this eight-day festival will be Scotland’s national celebration of Gaelic language and culture. Remember, around 70p from every pound spent locally, stays local – so by picking up that coffee, buying that gift or signing up for that workshop, you can do your bit to support the local community and its businesses. So, settle down with our Love Paisley Magazine and take a fresh look at all Paisley has to offer.
