    Hello! We've met several times at the Virginia Scottish Games and at the Alexandria Scottish Christmas Walk. I march with Clan Donnachaidh. Happily my wife and I will be attending the Grandfather Mountain Highland Games for the first time this year!

    Of interest to those in British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest:

    The Campbell River Highland Gathering will take place this year on Saturday, 7 August, although with a much reduced format. There will be no highland dancing or pipe band competitions, which will be replaced by demonstration performances in both cases. There will be solo piping and drumming competitions, however. Worst news of all though: there will be no beer tent, unless there is a late date change!

    Both the annual Scotfest (formerly BC Highland Games) in Coquitlam and the Victoria Highland Games have announced that they will take place on the September long weekend. Scotfest will be on September 4 with some events the evening of the 3rd. The Victoria Games have not announced the precise day, but will likely be held on the Sunday (5 September), as they were last year. The format in both cases will depend on the state of the COVID-19 restrictions (or lack thereof) at the time.

    Aye, T&A! Here's our photo from the 2019 Alexandria Scottish Christmas Walk. Nice group of Donnachaidhs that I've hung out in the past at Grandfather. Looking forward to seeing you and meeting your wife.

    I notice they don't say that they will be hosting the Games, but that they are working on hosting the Games.

    Perhaps a minor point of language, but their wording can be read to suggest that the Games are tentative.

    Update - June 19, 2021...More specific details including online ticket information will be announced over the next few weeks.

    I am anxious to hear more! The few weeks are just about up.
