A great day out for the whole family!

Perth Highland Games is a premier event in the Scottish Highland Games calendar, held annually from May to mid-September. Enjoy traditional Heavyweight events like weight throwing and caber tossing, along with Highland dancing, foot races, cycle races, and the pipe band contest featuring international bands.

PIPE BANDS FROM AROUND THE WORLD...

We’re delighted to be hosting the 2024 European Pipe Band Championships. Come along and see (and hear) this incredible spectacle that is bringing over 145 pipe bands to the fair city.

What's on?

What does the day look like?

The Perth Highland Games runs from 9am until… well… it’s finished. This is usually after 5pm when we have a massed pipe band performance. Certain events run all day such as the Highland Dancing, the Heavyweight competitions and the Track and Field events. 

And although we can’t tell you exactly when the caber will be tossed, we CAN say the whole day is full of things to see and do – plus you can get your hand stamped to get back in if you’d like to visit the city centre while you’re here!
