CASTLE PARK will be transformed into a Scottish highland gathering as a musical event heads to the city.

The Pipes in the Park event will see a large bagpipes and drums band from the south of England play a medley of Scottish tunes in Lower Castle Park on June 16.

The band will be wearing traditional Scottish attire such as tartan kilts as they march along the area.

There will also be Scottish dance and entertainment available for all ages.

The event is free to attend.
