2007 Festival Information

October 13th, 2007

The Anne Arundel Scottish Highland Games are held at the Anne Arundel County Fairgrounds on the second Saturday of October each year. The site consists of 74 acres of rolling hills located on Route 178, just outside Annapolis, Maryland, easily accessible from both Interstate I-97 and Route 50. Plenty of free parking is available. Numerous vendors of Scottish goods will be open all day for shoppers to browse. Scottish meat pies, bridies and sausage rolls will be available from Camerons Market of Kearny NJ as well as Fish & Chips and pit beef. Also available is Killian's Red and Coors Beers, a sponsor of the Games.

Next to the food vendors is the "Bothy", a covered pavilion with picnic tables and plenty of seating, featuring musical entertainment all day. This year's entertainers include: , a singing duo well-known to Scottish gatherings up and down the East Coast; Bonnie Rideout - World-Renown Scottish Fiddler; Carl Peterson, a balladeer from Greenock, Scotland also well known in the Scottish community; and The Homespun Ceilidh Band, playing traditional Celtic music in this area since 1993.

The U.S. Colors & Scottish Clans/Societies

Exhibitions at the Games include several breeds of Scottish dogs, highland cattle, Clydesdale horses and a sheepdog exhibition. This is always a favorite of the crowd, especially the children.
