Perth is sending out a huge fàilte air ais (welcome back) as the Royal National Mòd returns to the city today, Friday October 14 for the first time in 18 years.
Running until October 22, more than 50 shows and activities involving around 1500 musicians and participants will fill over 10 venues across Perth during the nine days. Local pubs are also embracing the Mòd’s arrival.
A spectacular torchlight procession along Tay Street will brighten the centre at 6.30pm to mark the opening of the world-renowned festival which celebrates all things Gaelic.
