South Ayrshire Licensing Board was told that there were challenges with the number of people bringing their own drinks to the show.
Licensing Standards Officer Catriona Andrew gave the board a report on the event, including three outdoor bars, that attracted 240,000 visitors to Ayr earlier this month.“Due to the large number of people who brought their own alcohol it was a huge challenge to ensure that only alcohol sold within the premises was consumed in the designated area.”
Licensing Board chair, Councillor William Grant, said that it had been a fantastic event, but acknowledged the need to review the licensing areas. Councillor Grant added that it was important that the Board was involved in the debrief around the event.
