From Scotland's highlands and lowlands, it's pipes & drums, song
& dance, fiddles, harp & guitar. And bringing it all together is the
Panama City Highland Games and Scottish Festival. You'll enjoy
fine performers, delicious Scottish food, highland athletics, Celtic
dancers, clan tents, and historical exhibits as we capture the spirit
of the highlands. Immerse yourself in this unique event!
Our festival abounds with the thrilling sound of the bagpipes and
drums, exciting competitions, and joyous celebration of Scottish
and Celtic heritage and culture. Feel the blood race as the Massed
Bagpipe Bands take the field playing "Scotland the Brave". Sing
along with Celtic musicians in the Tartan Tea Room. Shop at the
Exhibitor Tents for Scottish and Celtic items you won't see else-
where, such as highland attire and historical weapons. Enjoy a
scone, a cucumber sandwich or a Scottish egg. Make your way
to the Heavy Athletics field and marvel as kilted Scots compete at
traditional events such as tossing the 19 foot caber.
In light of the many Scots who were early settlers in our area, the
Panama City festival is a fitting site for a highland gathering. You
might meet a distant relative at the Clan Tents. The Scottish
festivities don't end as the sun sets and the crowds leave the grounds
of Grace Presbyterian Church. The popular Ceilidh (KAY-lee)
awaits you in the evening and the celebration continues! Celtic
musicians and performers will continue the excitement well into
the night. It's all here at the Panama City Highland Games and
Scottish Festival.
On Sunday March 9th at 10:40 am, a special service, the Kirkin'
of the Tartan, is held in the sanctuary of Grace Presbyterian Church. | Scottish Dancing Tea Room |
