Well folks, that’s us on countdown and weather watch for this year’s festival.
The committee have put together another fun week that all of the family can enjoy. EHQ week really is the best week of the year to visit Eyemouth. From making sandcastles, dressing up in fancy dress, quizzes to darts, there really is something there for all. Have a look at some of our photos from our events from last year.
Souvenir programmes are now on sale around Eyemouth, in Occasions Florist, General Store, Post Office and Eyemouth Filling Station, this year in full colour but at the same great price of £2.
If you have any queries, feel free to get in touch. Our facebook page will be posting daily with EHQ updates.
