LOCHGOILHEAD'S boutique music festival, Gig in the Goil, is back for a second year and promises to be bigger and better than ever.

The festival takes place from May 5 to May 7 and will feature a whole host of musical talent including acoustic, contemporary and traditional artists from around the country at Argyll Holidays' Drimsynie Estate.

Ross Coutts, Argyll Holidays’ marketing assistant said: “After the success of last year’s event, we’re delighted to have secured some big names on the west coast scene for this year’s festival.

"After Gig in the Goil 2016, we ran a survey to gather feedback from our previous attendees, allowing us to make this year’s festival even better.”

Tickets go on sale on Friday, January 27 and can be purchased at ticketweb.co.uk and local outlets.
