The Arran Banner

The local newspaper for the Isle of Arran, Scotland.

Founded in 1975, the Arran Banner was independently-owned, produced and printed on the Island until it became part of the Oban Times Group in 2003. News and features are still gathered by a dedicated, island-based team, whilst our parent company now handles printing and subscriptions. With the spotlight firmly on Arran-based news, and featuring a wide variety of stories with an Arran connection,

The Arran Banner is essential reading for islanders and visitors alike. As well as news and a lively letters page, regular features include a weekly sports round up from around the Island, up to the minute 'What's On' listings and Property, Recruitment and Classified advertising with a local focus.

You'll find all Arran life in the Banner!
