We’re honoured to play a role in bringing this iconic landmark to life, the experience will invite visitors to embark on a journey through the Highland’s rich culture full of community stories, and vibrant spirit.”

The Cèilidh Rooms, located in the North Tower, will feature a bar and a temporary exhibition space celebrating music and Cèilidhs, integral parts of Highland culture. It will open with a Runrig exhibition, developed, and designed alongside the band members themselves.
