Overview

It’s a sport but not as you know it! Welcome to the ancient traditions of the Scottish Highlands. And get set for a royal presence at these famous Highland games. Are you ready for the competition?

You’re heading out of Edinburgh, crossing the River Forth and heading through the heart of Scotland towards Braemar, and the ancient games that have been here for over 900 years! If the Scottish countryside en-route wasn’t exciting and pretty enough, then the competition at these games will surely have you in their grip. 

Watch as athletes from around the world take part in track and dancing events. Hear the sounds of the tartan-clad piped bands and immerse in the spectacle. It’s fit for the Royals, and it’s fit for you. 

Dances, jigs and sword dancing. This event in Braemar has it all. If you are looking for a slice of the traditional then this is the tour, the event, the day out of Edinburgh for you.
