Filter our FAQs by Watching, Taking Part or Sponsor:

  • Transport

    For the Games Day only, we provide a Shuttle Bus service from the Wellmeadow in Town, out to the Games Field and return again.

    It operates at approximately every twenty minutes, and is provided by the Blairgowrie Freedom Coach, which accommodates 16 passengers each trip.

    If you would like to use this service, it is free, but you can still give a donation to the Freedom Coach, as they too are a local charity.

    The Freedom Coach will also allow dogs on it, during the day, but the dogs must stay on the floor. They cannot be on the seats.

    Public Transport
    There are public transport links from Perth and Dundee to Blairgowrie, please check out the local operator at Bus Times & Timetables | Stagecoach

    Roads
    Blairgowrie is accessible from all points and from major Cities and Towns around Scotland.
