THE 128 TELEPHONE BOX GALLERY LIKES TO CELEBRATE BONFEST EVERY YEAR WITH A FUN INSTALLATION TO ADD TO THE TOWNS FESTIVITIES

Every year Bonfest is organised by a sub-committee of the DD8 Music charity. The income raised by the annual festival is invested back into the local community, in particular the running of this amazing music charity. They even have a music studio which is available to the public as a rehearsal space and recording studio. At the forefront of DD8 Music is the development of young local musicians. They aim to involve these aspiring young people in as many local community events as possible where they can engage their interests on a practical and educational level so that they can gain experience and knowledge in a field that they are passionate about.

The festival commemorates Bon Scott a native of Kirriemuir who was the frontman of the band AC/DC.

This installation created yearly is always a wee pun-based homage to Bon Scotts band AC/DC. See if you can guess them.

The bottles (artwork not alcohol) from the 2024 installation were sold on the last day of the festival with all proceeds going to the DD8 charity.

Please share your pun guesses or any photos you take at the gallery using the hashtag: #128TBG
