Ceilidh Tent

Ceilidh Tent hours are 9am-5pm on both Saturday and Sunday

The Ceilidh Tent offers exciting opportunities to learn more about, and play, Celtic instruments! This is where other acoustic traditional instrument players and listeners gather at the Highland Games. Stop by to hear fiddles, guitars, whistles, bodhrans, and more throughout the day. The Instrument Petting Zoo allows visitors the chance to learn about and the opportunity to play instruments they have seen but maybe not the opportunity to try out firsthand.
