From Cultivate in Aberdeen to Aden Music Festival – there’s a range of great events to go to in the north and north-east over the next few months.

Whether it’s music, books, film food, whisky and more – we’ve got you covered with our map of festivals.

The calendar this summer and into autumn is packed. We’ve charted more than 60 events in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Moray and the Highlands and Islands.

Who doesn’t like a music festival? There’s certainly been some great ones so far such as Belladrum and Tiree Music Festival.  And there’s plenty more to choose from.

In the north-east there’s Cultivate at Aberdeen beach this month, as well as the Inverurie Music Festival and Aden Music Festival.

Plan ahead for festival visit

Last month saw events such as the Made in Altandhu Micro Festival on the Port a Bhaigh Campsite in Achiltibuie.

Its line-up included Ultimate ELO, The Pretend Beatles, Fleeting Rumours and Kate Taylor.

Meanwhile, if you like books then put the Nairn Book & Arts Festival,which runs until Sunday, September 8, on your list.

If you are a whisky fan then head along to a new festival taking place this month.  Whisky Week will run for 11 days from September 5-15 in venues around Aberdeen city centre.

Whatever your festival plans, don’t leave anything to chance. Check the event website or social media page to make sure there are tickets left. Some festivals are in remote locations or may require a ferry to get there.  Ensure you take plenty of time to investigate your transport options.

Oh, and if you are going to be outdoors pack suitable clothing. You know the drill. Enjoy.
