About this event

The 37th Annual Southeast Florida Scottish Festival & Highland Games presented by the Scottish American Society of South Florida is an annual educational event, including a wide variety of Scottish cultural activities. The 2020 Festival will feature music by Canada's Celtic rock warriors - The Mudmen, The Piper Jones Band, Jamie McGeechan, and the World & North American Championship winning City of Dunedin Pipe & Drum Band.

The Festival will be held from 9am - 7 pm on March 7, 2020 at Plantation Heritage Park, 1100 S. Fig Tree Lane (W. 63rd Ave), Plantation, FL, centrally located for residents of Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. The Friday Night Ceilidh/Concert takes place on March 6th from 8-11 pm at the Deicke Auditorium, 5701 Cypress Rd, Plantation.

The Festival provides an exciting exhibition of Scottish culture with Pipe Band and Heavy Athletics competition, Scottish Country Dancing, Highland Dancing, Scottish rock and folk singing, fiddling, craft demonstrations, sheep dog trials, military reenactments, and Clan (family) & Society heritage displays. An area of Children's activities immerses them in Scottish culture through dress up, coloring, child-appropriate Scottish athletics and a passport game that guides them around the heritage displays.

Our vendor area features Scottish/Celtic artisan merchandise, such as pottery, jewelry, fabric arts, and leatherwork, including works by local and other Florida-based artisans. Traditional Scottish foods, including haggis, Scotch Pie, Scotch eggs, fish & chips, shortbread, clootie dumpling, and more are on offer, as well as foods from American and other cultural traditions. Soda, water, wine and beer, including Scottish ales, are also for sale.

Participation at the Festival is by people of all ages, ethnicities and sexes and is not restricted to those of Scottish heritage. Come be Scottish for a day - and bring a friend! Everyone looks good in a kilt!
