A playful food partnership is adding extra flavour to the festive season with dishes that promise to surprise and delight.
The Glasgow-based IRN-BRU Carnival, the largest indoor funfair in Europe, has teamed up with Clydebuilt Restaurant to introduce limited-edition menu items inspired by Scotland’s beloved soft drink.
The 106th edition of the IRN-BRU Carnival opened on Friday, December 19, and runs until January 11.
During this period, visitors can try three IRN-BRU-themed treats: pakora, cheesecake and a Mr Whippy-style soft-serve ice cream.
Allan Gray-Smith, general manager of SEC Food, said: “We’re delighted to partner up with the IRN-BRU Carnival for these fun-themed dishes exclusive for Carnival season, which is always a popular time with families.

Inclusive experiences remain a key focus, with autism-friendly sessions returning on December 28 and January 5.
These dedicated sessions run from 11am to 2pm on December 28 and from 4pm to 9pm on January 5.
The goal is to create a welcoming environment for visitors with autism and sensory processing differences, along with their families and carers.
During these sessions, the main hall lights will be kept on and music will be either switched off or played at a very low volume.
