Late-night shoppers in Inverness can take advantage of free parking on Thursday evenings in the run-up to Christmas.
The city's Eastgate Shopping Centre will be open until 7pm on Thursdays and is offering free parking from 5pm.
All-day parking will also be available for £2 on Sundays in the run-up to Christmas.
Centre manager Jackie Cuddy said: "These festive parking offers are a Christmas present from Eastgate – a thank you for supporting the centre and its retailers throughout the year.
"It’s also a great opportunity for shoppers to tick off their Christmas present list at leading stores such as Boots, The Body Shop, Hotel Chocolat, The Entertainer, Waterstones, The Perfume Shop, and Menkind."
The centre will be open on Christmas Eve for last-minute shopping from 9am to 5pm.
It will be closed on Christmas Day and will reopen for the Boxing Day sales on Saturday December 26.
On New Year’s Eve, the centre will be open from 9am to 5pm, closed on New Year’s Day, and will reopen on Saturday January 2 from 9am to 5.30pm.
