The Scottish Tartan Festival is a celebration of Scottish culture, music and games! You can explore your heritage at the clan tents. Enjoy traditional and modern Celtic music performed by The Rogues, Dead Reckoning String Band and Chambless, Muse & Vogts. Marvel at the quick feet of the Thistle Dancers & Pipers and the agility of the Jackson Irish Dancers as they perform Highland dance and jigs. Learn about history through the exhibits of our artisans and craftsmen. Pick out a champion to cheer for at the Highland Games competition or enter your furry friend in the Dog Show. Come see which contestant can “down a pound” of haggis in the “Haggis-Eating Contest” while you enjoy Scottish foods, as well as traditional festival foods. Feel free to dance around the Maypole, pet a Highland "Coo" and shop till you drop with our Celtic vendors. It's one giant Ceilidh (Gaelic for party) that lasts the entire day!
