SB | Episode 75: Stirling - UK City of Culture 2025?

Longlisted in the final shortlist of eight for this prestigious title, Stirling is bidding to show the judging panel just what it can offer when it comes to arts and creativity. The theme of Stirling’s bid is the passion for culture that flows through the people of the region.

In this week’s episode we examine Stirling’s credentials for the title and what success would mean for this small city that is so close to the heart of our “daughter of the rock”!

As always we finish with our Scots words of the episode.
