Oban Live is set to be a fruitful occasion after the event team has officially announced that Strongbow and Strongbow Dark Fruit are drinks partners for Oban Live.
The refreshing ciders will be a hit with the Oban Live audience, providing the perfect refreshment as they enjoy live music performed by an impressive line-up.
Held at Oban’s famous shinty ground, Mossfield Stadium, Oban Live is the biggest live music event in the region of Argyll & Bute and takes place on June 2 and 3. Last year’s inaugural event attracted 7,800 people to Oban, a pretty coastal town in the West Coast of Scotland. The line-up this year includes legendary household names Hue And Cry and Toploader as well as a number of Scottish and Irish traditional music stars and Celtic rockers such as Skerryvore, Skipinnish, Tide Lines, We Banjo 3, Trail West and more.
On tap behind the bar will be Strongbow Original, a blend of bittersweet cider apples, grown and pressed in Herefordshire, plus Strongbow Dark Fruit, a crisp apple cider combined with a refreshing blend of Dark Fruit, delivering Strongbow’s signature cut-through refreshment.
Also, with thanks to Strongbow, beer on tap this year will include Foster’s lager and Caledonian Coast-to-Coast Pale Ale.
Daniel Gillespie, Managing Director for Oban Live said: “Oban Live is delighted to have Strongbow and Strongbow Dark Fruit on board with the event this year and we thank them for their support. Having such a high quality, globally recognised brand on offer all adds to the visitor experience. Our audiences this past two years have been amazing and are always really up for it during the live performances – between all that jumping and dancing, Strongbow cider will be the perfect solution for our thirsty crowds!”
