A marquee is now up on the front lawn of Eden Court in the Highland capital all set for almost two months of live entertainment events.

It is for the venue's flagship outdoor festival Under Canvas which runs from July 1 to August 27.

The event will feature live music, performances, DJ sets and specially curated weeks as well as a pop-up bar and freshly made pizzas.

Under Canvas will provide paid employment opportunities to more than 170 Scottish musicians.

The line-up for 2022 includes Gary Innes and Ewen Henderson, The Shackleton Trio and Lewis McLaughlin, who feature in July. The venue says it will welcome back some much-loved acts from 2021 including HEISK, Man of the Minch and Mischa Macpherson.

As well as the regular programme, there are a number of specially curated events throughout the summer. These include a Belladrum Take-Over on July 9 and Runrig Connections (July 20-22), celebrating the influence of the band in today’s trad-music scene.
