The restoration of Rothesay Pavilion could re-start soon.
The competition will be held in two stages. A piobaireachd competition - four tunes own choice - followed by a March, Strathspey and Reel - four tunes of each, own choice.
The champion will have scored the highest aggregate points over the two competitions.
The hope is this new competition will act as a springboard for talented young pipers in preparation for senior piobaireachd competitions.
