Travel - US - States - Scottish Festivals and Highland Games

My family loves to attend culturally-based festivals and some of our favorites are the Scottish festivals. You can usually find people dressed in kilts and clan tartans plus bagpipes, dancing, adult beverages, food, and family-friendly activities. Most of the 2020 events have been/were cancelled due to Covid, but 2021 looks promising so start planning now. Please check the festival for specific dates, as dates may change without notice.
