The 147th gathering of the Blackford Highland Games will take place on Saturday May 28.
The famous Blackford Highland Games have been held since 1870 on the park, an area of land loaned to the community by the landowner. A condition of the loan is that the Highland Games are held there annually in May.
A full list of events includes throwing the hammer, tossing the caber, putting the shot, tug o’ war, athletics, track and field events, dancing with side shows, trade and refreshment stands.
Chieftain of this year’s games will be Yla Steven. The Perthshire Heavies competition begins at 10.30am with all other events starting at 12.30pm. Comrie Pipe Band will also perform on the day.
