The beautiful backdrop of Paisley’s Coats Venue will be shown as part of a special Christmas programme on BBC ALBA this evening.
The Christmas edition of Alleluia! was filmed at the venue back in September and is due to be broadcast at 11pm tonight.
Alleluia! is a spiritual series broadcast on BBC ALBA and this festive 50-minute show will feature performances of specially arranged hymns, readings and reflections for Christmas 2021.
Among the performers recorded at Coats Venue were acclaimed Gaelic singers Mary Ann Kennedy and well-known TV presenter Joy Dunlop.

The show will be broadcast on BBC ALBA this evening at 11pm. It will be repeated on Boxing Day at 8pm and will be available to watch any time on BBC iPlayer.
Following the church’s last service in August 2018, the Coats Memorial Preservation Trust, a group of trustees, launched a campaign to save the iconic building for future generations to enjoy.
Together, they raised funds to upgrade the building so it can be used as a multipurpose venue for weddings, corporate events, arts and music, festivals, graduations and proms.
