THE eclectic programme for this year’s Perth Festival draws to a close on Sunday with the sell-out Bell Lawrie Festival Concert in Perth Concert Hall featuring the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Lesley Garrett and Julian Lloyd Webber.

Tomorrow’s sold-out events are Irish comedian Dara O Briain and The Great Gilbert and Sullivan Show.

Tickets are still available for tonight’s events: Calvin Harris in Perth Concert Hall and Rodney Bewes’ one-man show, On Stage and Off, in Perth Theatre.

And music lovers can tune into Perthshire born and raised mezzo-soprano Rowan Hellier for her ‘Music on a Saturday Morning’ concert in St John’s Kirk at 11am tomorrow.
