Inverness Northern Meeting Park Inverness reviews by real event-goers

Review of The Gathering

For the first year of this event, it was fantastic, we didn't have to queue long to get in. There were really long queues for the bar, but it moved really quickly. Never had to queue for the toilets much either. Great atmosphere, 14 year old daughter met all of Tide Lines, two Ho Ro and some of Elephant sessions, got autographs and photos. I have heard there was a lot of folk trying to see Peat and Diesel, but hey, who'd think they'd be so popular!lol! Altogether an amazing day! Will be there next year!

Long day not enough seating areas to eat or just take a break

Review of The Gathering

Was a great day out but the queues for the bar were a joke. Could take a look how the bar at Runrig was run, far better. And a choice of drink other than local brewed beers etc

Review of The Gathering

Although the music was good.. We left the venue hours before it was due to end as we were so fed up with spending most of our time standing in a que for a drink.. If this was ever held again there would have to be big improvements with either less people allowed in... Or a lot more beer tents with more staff serving 👍

Review of The Gathering

I thought the whole day was excellent. The only criticism I have is that all the bands that are on should be on main stage and not in a tent. So that if it did get busy they wouldn’t be stopped. All in all an fab day was had by our group and will be buying for next year if there is one 👌

Review of The Gathering

Excellent event although could have done with at least another bar and charging a little bit less for drinks as most of the people there were young people who should be encouraged to attend these kind of events with more traditional Scottish music rather than putting them off by charging a lot

Review of The Gathering

Not at all like it was advertised to be. Very unsuitable for families with young children and long waits in line for dull food. Two headline acts playing simultaneously sounded wrong and was the result of poor planning on the part of the organisers. Not worth the money and we will not be back. Both headline acts are great in their own right but were spoiled by the gatherings poor organisational skills.

Review of The Gathering

Excellent variety of music and I also enjoyed the food outlets and the sessions in the small tent. My o ly criticism would be the length of the queue to reach the bar.

Great event, top venue/music/craic. Maybe another bar for next year as Q was huge at all times. Looking forward to next year already :-)

Review of The Gathering

Bar ques were ridiculous...

Review of The Gathering

The only thing I would improve on for next year is to have more catering in terms of food as the queues were huge. Generally, though, the atmosphere was great and music was fantastic!
