2026 Highland Dance Competition
Saturday, August 1, 2026
8:30 am to 3:00 pm EDT
Scottish Highland dancing celebrates the strength and spirit of Scotland. Performed solo and often in competition, these traditional dances combine athleticism, precision, and grace, all set to the lively sound of bagpipes playing Strathspeys, Reels, Hornpipes, and Jigs.
Each dance features intricate sequences of steps, typically four to six in length. Highland dancing is exciting to watch and welcomes anyone who enjoys the music, energy, and traditions of Scottish culture.
