A new opportunity to run a bike hub concession in the heart of Inverness is being offered, with bids invited to operate a new facility at Northern Meeting Park.
The concession is being made available by High Life Highland, with a closing date for offers set for Friday the 30th of January 2026.
The successful operator will be responsible for running a Bike Hub offering bike hire and maintenance services, while also developing activities for both local people and visitors over the next five years.
The hub will be based within the historic Northern Meeting Park, following a major £5.9 million refurbishment of the site.
The park sits within Inverness city centre and forms part of the Riverside Conservation Area.
Its pavilion is regarded as the best surviving example of its type in Scotland and reflects the city’s Victorian expansion as a centre for trade, tourism and culture.
Andrea Finlayson, Senior Community Venues and Engagement Manager at High Life Highland, said the opportunity offers something truly distinctive.
“This is an exceptional opportunity for someone to pedal their own bike business within a truly unique and historical setting, right in the heart of the Highland capital.
“The Northern Meeting Park is a listed building and an important part of Inverness’ historic environment.
“Following on from an extensive refurbishment, the addition of a Bike Hub for locals and visitors alike offers a new venture for an experienced business owner or someone keen to tread a new business path.”
High Life Highland is seeking a suitably experienced operator who can build a sustainable service that supports active travel, community use and tourism.
The Bike Hub is expected to complement the wider park facilities while encouraging cycling and outdoor activity in the city.
Those interested are encouraged to act quickly, with the deadline for submissions fast approaching.
