Although there are often pics of me in my tweed, I usually remove it after the parade of clans at the opening ceremony which occurs at noon. The mornings are typically cool enough that I am glad to have the tweed but by noon and mid afternoon, the heat of the sun is out in full and shirt sleeves are more than adequate. Do they even have such a parade at most Highland Games in the Highlands? I see clan parades at Clan gatherings but that's a somewhat different affair.
