The 38th Annual Scottish Festival and Highland Games
The Chicago Scots are excited to announce the relocation of the 38th Annual Scottish Festival and Highland Games to our new home at the DuPage County Fairgrounds! As we prepare for a memorable celebration of Scottish culture, tradition, skill and athleticism.
The Scottish Festival and Highland Games has activities and attractions for everyone - from the Caber Toss to Highland Dancing to the Dogs of Scotland. This family-friendly outdoor event is a chance to explore Scottish culture without buying a plane ticket. Plus, all proceeds benefit the Chicago Scots and Caledonia Senior Living and Memory Care.
