What’s On In Inverness This Summer

As usual we’re expecting a busy summer in the Highland capital, Inverness.  The clocks have changed and the days are noticeably longer.  Tourist attractions have dusted off their summer timetables and Scottish castles get ready to open their doors for the summer season.  We are lucky to have a great number of varied events and festivals taking place throughout the Highlands and therefore tourists flock to our shores.  Because there seems to be something for all tastes and many events are free.

Here are just a few of the main events taking place.  So which will you be attending?
