Glengarry Highland Games, Maxville, Ontario

[Dileasgubas]

Just returned from two days at the 70th edition of the Glengarry Highland Games. 1,400 musicians on the field for the massed bands event but I noticed other musicians watching so the total number of musicians was certainly higher. Not sure how many spectators but it was likely over 10,000. Congratulations to Maxville (population: 853) and the organizing committee for another successful Games. Rather than posting my own poor quality photos, here is a google search link to some photos of the event.

I've posted this drone footage before, however, for those who have not seen it, here is the 2014 version from the air. I note that the parking lots are not full in this video but that they were this year. Attendance was therefore very good. Even Prime Minister Trudeau made an appearance, wearing a kilt in his family (Sinclair) tartan.
