The Portland Highland Games

Saturday, July 18, 2009

The Portland Highland Games are a fun, family-friendly event featuring Scottish Highland music, dancing, piping and drumming competitions, heavy athletics, and other traditional Scottish cultural activities including beer of course, and even some bangers and mash. Sorry, no haggis will be cooking on-site this year, but there's lots more to see. The Portland Highland Games is so authentic, you'll think you're in Scotland!
