AS WELL as the Farmers and Farmers’ Wives Choir, the Highland will play host to a veritable cacophony of sound.

Acts from across the musical spectrum will perform throughout the event, giving visitors a spectacular range of entertainment to enjoy.

That includes Stevie McCrorie, winner of The Voice 2015, who will perform at the Royal Highland Show on Saturday afternoon. He has had tremendous success since his appearance on The Voice, having had a top 10 single in the UK charts and his album, Big World, entering the iTunes chart at No 6 in the UK.

The National Youth Choir of Scotland Edinburgh Choir will also perform for the first time this year. It is very much in demand having recently performed at BBC Children in Need and at the Teatro Regio Torino production of La Bohemme at Edinburgh International Festival.

If its opera that floats your boat, then a special treat will be Scotland’s newest independent opera company, Opera Bohemia, performing some aria highlights.

Scottish Schools and Youth will be out in force with some amazing young talent on display – West Lothian Schools Pipe Band, James Gillespies School, St Aidens High Band, City of Edinburgh Music School and Queen Victoria School. There will also be a school band from Norway, Hasle Skole Musikkorps, from Oslo.

Visitors can look forward to enjoying the musical performances of Irish singer Marty Mone and the ever-popular Artie Trezise.

For a little swoon, there’s a wide array of bands – the Duncan Black Ceilidh Band (2017 Scottish Ceilidh Band of the Year), George Penman Jazz Band, Revival Blues Band and Vardo Gypsy Swing; while Brass bands, Brox and Liv Brass Band and Clackmannan District Brass Band will show off their talents as well as the Royal British Legion Band and the Uddingston and Strathclyde Pipe Band.
