Youngsters showcased their Gaelic talents in singing, poetry, storytelling and choir at the Royal National Mod today.

After the success of this year’s event so far, which started on Friday, young performers took to stages across Perth for the third day of competitions on Tuesday.

Gaelic singers, choirs and reciters aged 18 and under competed for their chance to bring home a prize.

Over the course of the festival, organised by An Comunn Gaidhealach, musicians and participants of all ages will compete for some of the Mod’s most coveted awards.
