Canadian superstar Bryan Adams has announced his first ever Highlands performance.
The Summer of ’69 hitmaker will take to the stage at Bught Park, Inverness on July 16.
The show is a continuation of his Get Up Tour, and is one of just a handful of outdoor shows that Bryan Adams will perform in the UK next year.
The singer said he was looking forward to performing some of his hits for a raucous Highlands crowd.
“I’m delighted to be continuing my tour and heading up to Inverness next summer.,” he said.
“It will give me an opportunity to perform tracks from my latest album, Get Up, as well as some of my earlier classics.
“It’s going to be a special show and I hope my fans are able to join me.”
The outdoor show at Bught Park, Inverness is being organised by Inverness-based concert promoter, LCC Live, which has recently confirmed that The Beach Boys and Olly Murs will also be performing in Inverness in 2017, as part of Live in the City.
LCC Live’s Director, Les Kidger, said: “It’s been a life-long dream of mine to bring Bryan Adams to Inverness for an outdoor show, so I’m absolutely thrilled to be staging his only Scottish show in 2017, in Inverness.
“This is a massive coup for LCC Live, but also for the people of Inverness and the Highlands.”
Provost Helen Carmichael said: “The news that Bryan Adams is to headline the third concert that LCC Live is to stage in Inverness in 2017 is most welcome.
“I am sure that this show, and the previously announced shows starring The Beach Boys and Olly Murs, are going to provide a boost to our city’s economy by attracting concert goers from far and wide.
“Shows like these create an unforgettable atmosphere in our city and create memories that will be appreciated for years.”
