John Lennon Northern Lights Festival Announced
Authors include Beatles' expert Steve Turner - who is also a well-known children's poet - and has sold over 1 million books.
John's oldest surviving relative, Stan Parkes - who shared his holidays with his famous cousin in Durness - will be taking part, as will other members of his family. In an unique event members of the public will be able to ask Ms Baird and her relatives all about their times with John.
Even the festival's shuttle bus will be driven by Iris Mackay, one of John's old Durness play pals - who will tell passengers about her times with John as she transports festival goers!
Many more artists will be revealed over the next few weeks.
John would be both delighted and surprised that he had inspired such a great festival in a part of the world he loved," said Mr Parkes.
"This is not about exploiting his fame, it is about celebrating his inspiration - and that is why so many leading artists and John's family have supported and endorsed the event.
