Nov is the month ....I'm not sure of the days..its usually the second or third weekend , and its going to be 2 or 3 days this year!
I'm thinking everyone meets up at the beer tent and the after its over head to the Auld Dubliner for pints and grub I kow vinnie is playing with 7 pipers and after that I know he'll be in the mood for food and more piping ( hence going to Auld Dubliner.......we seem to have a good rappor (sp) with the manager/owner there and they sure liek us comming in in kilts !!
(you think it might be that we tip good, and "consume mass quantities" of food and drink?.......nahh)
more info as it becomes available ( IOW when I figure out WTH is going on)

I'll be there. The food is good at the Auld Dub. I've never been to a Stateside festival so this will be interesting for me. O'Neille

I have plans to trek on down to Tucson for the event. Intent is to take my grandkids along and immerse them in their heritage.
No clue what I'll be wearing...look for a beer bellied bearded tatted out long hair with riverwater dripping from the hem of his kilt.
Will update.
Gotta skip the beer tent though. Had more than my share and will have 17 years sober on 11/7 if I don't drink before then.
Looking forward to meeting some of you kilted brigands and pirates

Okay, looking good for Tucson games on 11/4.
I got Friday the 3rd off for a drive down day. Gonna stay at my daughter's in Vail and commute. Hopefully bring her and the gran kids.
Still not sure if my lady will come down too. She's cramming for a national certification exam in radiology administration.
