Highland Games
Scottish athletic festival
Highland Games are traditional Scottish athletic competitions featuring events like caber tossing, hammer throwing, and stone putting.
Participants often wear kilts, and the games typically include bagpipe music, dancing, and other cultural displays.
Originally gatherings of Scottish clans, Highland Games now occur worldwide wherever Scottish heritage is celebrated: We attended the Highland Games in North Carolina.
