Jim Warnock, Chairman of Royal Highland Show organisers, the Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland (RHASS), commented:
“Over the last few years, RHASS has been exploring options to satisfy the rising demand for evening entertainment at the Royal Highland Show. Last year the first-ever series of Big Top concerts were held which saw acts performing to a sell-out crowd.
“This year, we are happy to be working with Farmers Bash to present the Royal Highland Hoolie, which promises to be a fantastic night of entertainment that we are sure will be welcomed by our visitors as a fun extension of their Royal Highland Show experience.”
Farmers Bash organiser, Nigel Campbell, added:
“We are very much looking forward to bringing the spirit of Farmers Bash to Scotland. Our events are extremely popular amongst rural communities and we are sure that the Royal Highland Hoolie will be a fantastic night of live music and a great addition to the Royal Highland Show.”
