Poignant tributes will be paid to those who have died in conflict during the annual remembrance parade and service in Inverness which was cancelled last year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The parade on Sunday will form part of a weekend of events including wreath-laying ceremonies.
It will set off from Huntly Street at 2.25pm and will include members of the Inverness branch of the Royal British Legion Scotland who will be joined by civic dignitaries.
The procession will go to the war memorial in Cavell Gardens where there will be a service starting at 3pm.
Tomorrow, members of the Inverness RBLS will place wreaths at the Queen’s Own Cameron Highlanders Memorial in Station Square at 10am and at the Queen’s Own Highlanders Memorial in Bank Street at 10.30am.
