Hundreds of pipers and drummers, bands, tons of shopping, tossing the caber events and more. You don't have to be Scottish to enjoy the fun! The annual event is one of the largest, best attended Scottish festivals in California.

Held on Memorial Day weekend the weather is often perfect and the camaraderie is great. Irish food, clans, vendors, Highland dancing and plenty of colorful kilts and bagpipes make this a unique way to spend your summer launch point.
