SCOTLAND
SCOTLAND
Scotland is an idyllic land, where ancient castles nestle amidst majestic mountains and world-class heritage sites come alive with a
rich, turbulent history. The soul-stirring landscapes of the Highlands give way to a rugged coastline, and beyond, to Scotland’s
magical isles. Of course, this romantic heather-hued backdrop exists alongside a vibrant, contemporary new voice. Edinburgh
inspires with its imperious castle and Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the world’s biggest arts festival. Glasgow’s Victorian cityscape is
quite remarkable, as are its free public museums. Year round, both cities host world-class festivals and events which celebrate
Scotland’s traditional and contemporary culture.

Festival and the highlight of the festival season. It is an international favourite
and has been entertaining audiences for over 60 years with performers from
30 countries. Thrill to the spine-tingling sights and sounds of the world famous
massed pipes and drums, action displays and the famous finale of the lone
piper on the castle ramparts. We have excellent seats for all performances in
the block directly facing the castle. Performance times are 9pm Mon to Fri,

^The Saturday performances are followed by a fireworks display at additional charge.
