Tickets & Admissions

Good news: getting in is easy on the wallet.

  • Saturday evening: Free admission for everyone. Come for the Highland Dance Competition and stay for live music in the beer gardens.
  • Sunday Highland Games: $15 for ages 13 to 64.
  • Free for kids 12 and under and guests 65 and over.

Bring the whole crew. Whether it is your first Gathering or your fortieth, there is a spot on the field for you.

Hours

Give yourself the full day. There is plenty to see.

  • Saturday: Gates open at 5:30 PM. Highland Dance Competition first, then live music at 7:30 PM.
  • Sunday: Gates open at 8:00 AM for a full day of Highland Games, pipes, dance, and heavy events.

Come early on Sunday to catch the massed bands and settle in before the crowds arrive.

Parking

On-site parking is available for visitors. Arrive with a little time to spare on Sunday morning, as the lot fills up as the day gets going. Carpooling with friends is a smart move, and it means more room in the car for everyone’s Scottish goodies on the way home.

Accessibility

Everyone is welcome here, and we mean everyone.

  • The grounds are accessible for guests using mobility aids.
  • Accessible parking is available near the entrance.
  • Friendly volunteers are on hand if you need directions or a helping hand.
