Night Before Christmas Campaign, known as NBCC, is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation. Scottish Charity Number SC047995. Regulated by the Scottish Charity Regulator, OSCR. How we handle your details is in our privacy notice.

Tickets are non-refundable but transferable to another guest, and fully refunded if the event is cancelled and not rescheduled. See the ticket terms.

Who you're supporting

You know us at Christmas. We're here all year.

The Night Before Christmas Campaign is a volunteer run Scottish charity based in Annbank, Ayrshire. We provide thoughtful gifts and vital support to children, young people and vulnerable adults across South West Scotland, from Girvan to Largs.

Our Red Bags Full of Joy bring dignity, comfort and a moment of joy to people who might otherwise go without at Christmas. Each bag gives support around the value of £50, and in 2025 7,657 of them went out.

We're here the rest of the year too: helping a family start again after a house fire, clothing and school supplies for children whose families can't stretch to them, and a hand for people at rock bottom.

A £100 ticket could help NBCC support around two more people at Christmas.

We are proud to have The Designer Rooms behind this. They have brought the whole evening together and are paying for every part of it, from the venue to the meal to the entertainment, so the night raises money for the children, young people and vulnerable adults we support rather than paying for itself. It is a generous thing for a business to do, and we are enormously grateful.
