7.30pm.

4) Cinderella at the Inchyra

If ever there was a venue where you would need a magic-enhanced dress and glass slippers it’s the posh Inchyra Hotel. Panto fun comes to the venue from 2pm on Sunday with the age old tale of Cinderella, who upgraded her Travelodge status to dance with a handsome prince.

5) Daniel O’Donnell

The velvet voice of Irish crooner Daniel O’Donnell can still make ladies’ hearts skip a beat – although admittedly some are at an age when their arteries are starting to harden – and he will be performing to his adoring fans at the SECC Armadillo on Friday from 7pm.

6) Christmas Psychic Party

You don’t have to have to have second sight to predict a fun time will be had by all who attend Ghostseekers’ Christmas Psychic Party at Stenhousemuir’s Plough Hotel on Saturday. A Robbie Williams, pictured above, tribute act will have it large with the mediums from 7.30pm.
