The Cowal Highland Gathering
Event
About
The Cowal Highland Gathering is by far the biggest festival in Cowal and of course the largest highland games in the world! It attracts more than 3500 competitors, many of whom come from Scottish communities-in-exile such as British Columbia, Australia and New Zealand. Over the three days of the games, around 23,000 people visit to enjoy the unique Cowal Highland Games atmosphere. Apart from the competition which includes Highland Dancing, pipe bands, wrestling, heavy athletics, and solo piping, to watch, visitors can participate in the ceilidh tent, a children's tent and a quality food fair from the best of local producers
