The Event runs Saturday June 24 - Sunday June 25 2023, at Brengle Terrace Park in Vista, CA, 9am-5pm both days. Tickets can be purchased at the gates, and range from $5-$15, with a discount for senior citizens, and military members. Guests will enjoy action with our Heavy Athletics competition, where men and women participate in a series of challenges, throwing heavy objects (most notably, the Cab

er Toss) in a show of strength and grit. Be sure to also check out our Highland Dance competition, Bagpipe & Drum bands, whisky tasting, and the Sheepdog Trials. You’ll find a wonderful variety of vendors, specializing in Celtic, and British goods, if shopping is more of your thing. After visiting our Scottish Clans booths and learning more about your ancestral roots, enjoy an authentic meal, and a cold beverage in our shaded beer garden, where we’ll have live music all day, both days.

It's not quite "Thirsty Thursday", but here's a first look at our offering in our TWO, shaded beer gardens this year. While other events charge an arm-and-a-leg, we've kept our prices as low as possible, at just $8 a pour.

What's your first order gonna be?!

For the first time, we'll have a shaded beer garden where you can observe our Pipe & Drum competition (in addition, of course, to our live music beer garden, featuring Highland Way, and the Wicked Tinkers).
