THE ENCHANTED FOREST, Perthshire’s sound and light show, has staved off competition from 38 Scottish tourism providers to take home the Tourism & Hospitality Award in the Scottish Rural Awards.
The show, which will celebrate its 15th anniversary this year, drew more than 62,000 visitors to the Highland Perthshire area in 2015 over a 32-night run, a 33% increase on the previous year.
The event’s impact on the local tourism economy is now expected to be in the region of £2.75 million a year, with more than 50% of all visitors to the event choosing to stay overnight in the area after their visit, and 90% citing the event as their main reason for visiting the area in the autumn.
