The Badenoch communities hold an annual heritage festival which builds on the very successful Kingussie festivals held previously.

This year’s Badenoch Heritage Festival will be held from 17-23 September 2023.

As usual, there will be a wide range of events including walks, tours, talks and concerts, with something for everyone interested in learning more about heritage around Badenoch.

Details of the events being held will be posted here nearer the time, once they are finalised. Booking details will then be posted on Eventbrite.

Established in 2022 in collaboration with HM the Queen’s ‘Reading Room’ – a worldwide network of literary communities – we are delighted to announce the grand return of the Braemar Literary Festival for its second year.

Turn the page on your next big adventure and visit us in our storybook setting from 29th September to 1st October 2023, for a weekend celebrating the power and quiet beauty of the written and spoken word.

Connecting bibliophiles of all ages with heartfelt readings from the authors who penned the words and a forum to engage in spirited discussion, we stand proudly as part of the new Scottish cultural scene.
