The Royal Highland Show saw continued success with its record breaking 2024 event as 55,000 show goers descended upon the Ingliston site in Edinburgh on its second day (Friday). The sell-out crowd was wowed with the best display of farming, food and rural life that Scotland has to offer.
Friday also marked the first night of the Royal Highland Hoolie, a celebration of Scottish Music with Peatbog Faeries, Nathan Evans and Tide Lines set to take the stage this evening.
The Hoolie will return for a second night on Saturday featuring Derek Ryan, Lisa McHugh and with an exclusive appearance from “Cotton eye Joe” chart toppers, Red Nex.
Mark Currie, Director of Venue for RHASS, said: “We are absolutely delighted to see record crowds at the Royal Highland Show this year.
“Day two has seen a fantastic array of competitions, events and exhibitors and we send our congratulations to all the winners so far. We look forward to two more action packed days.”
Ticket sales across the 2024 event are also up on previous years, with an increase of 15% on the same time last year.
Those attending the show in the next two days are reminded that Saturday car parking is also sold out and attendees without parking tickets are encouraged to utilise public transport.
