Tickets for the Dornoch Music Festival on the 17th and 18th of July are moving quickly, with organisers urging people to act now before availability tightens.

Set in the heart of the Highlands, the festival continues to build serious momentum as one of the standout events of the summer calendar.

With The Hoosiers headlining Saturday and The Tumbling Paddies leading Friday night, the line up brings together a strong mix of national acts and rising local talent.

Support across the weekend includes Tide Lines, Glasville, The Wellerman, Wrest and a growing list of artists that reflects both quality and variety.

But the draw goes beyond the music, with the festival offering a full weekend experience built around atmosphere, community and location.

Dornoch itself provides the setting, open skies, coastal air and space to properly enjoy the weekend rather than rush through it.

The event is designed to be accessible and welcoming, with a family zone, funfair, food vendors and a strong local presence throughout.

Camping adds another layer to the experience, turning it from a night out into a full weekend away.

What is becoming clear is that this is not just another event trying to fill a calendar slot.

It is growing into something people want to be part of.

That is reflected in ticket demand.

Early sales have been strong and the pace is picking up as summer approaches.

The message from organisers is straightforward, if you are thinking about going, now is the time to decide.

Once capacity is reached, that will be it.

For a festival built on Highland spirit, local ownership and a clear sense of direction, the response so far suggests it is landing exactly where it needs to.
