Hot on the heels of last Friday’s Highland 2007 Launch and Lifescan Monster Street Party, Highland 2007 have announced today that international rock star Sir Elton John will play in the Highlands as part of the year of Highland culture celebrations!
The concert will take place at Tulloch Caledonian Stadium, Inverness, on Sunday 15 July and will be the opening event for InvernessFest, a new festival taking place in the Highland capital between 15 and 29 July 2007.
Highland 2007 chair, Alison Magee, said: “We are delighted to be working with local partners in bringing such a major artist to the Highlands in 2007. Highland 2007 is all about bringing the spotlight on the Highlands and showing the rest of the world that it is a great place to live and to visit.
EventScotland chief executive, David Williams, said: “We are pleased that such a high profile figure such as Sir Elton John has agreed to take part in the year of Highland culture, contributing to a packed programme full of quality events.”
Alan Savage, chairman of Caley Thistle, said: “This is a tremendous attraction for the city and the region and Caley Thistle is very pleased to be hosting this major event in the Highlands. It is the first time we have hosted a concert at the stadium and hopefully will pave the way for future events of this nature."
For further details of the concert stay tuned to media partners, Moray Firth Radio. MFR managing director, Danny Gallagher, said: “We are really excited about Elton John coming to Inverness in our 25th birthday year – although he was in the charts with Blue Eyes when our station started, Elton continues to be one of our core artists in 2007.”
