The carnival, run by the Paisley Vespa Scooter Club, has attracted over 100 individual scooters to take part in recent years and fundraising efforts this year will be going to March of the Mods, in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust. 

Musical entertainment will include performances by START!, Berry Tweed & The Chasers, The Absolute Jam and DJ Gerry McGuire, Emily Capell and The Electric Stars.

Gary Kerr of organiser LNP Promotions, said: “It’s so good to have ModStuff back in the Spiegeltent this year on the opening Saturday of Paisley’s The Spree festival.

"This year, there’s a brilliant mix of local and national, original, cover and tribute acts – and of course Gerry will be there too, to hold it all together. It’s always a fantastic day.”
