Hadrian’s Wall

A Celtic ceilidh band from Glengarry, Canada with decades of recording and performances for audiences across North America, this seasoned group has the art of delivering a great time!

The music of Hadrian’s Wall borrows elements of Scottish and Irish tradition, and blends these with their own influences of Folk and Canadiana. Together, they foster an awesome sound that keeps the toes a tappin’ and the spirits soaring.

 

RCAF Pipes & Drums

Did you know 2024 marks not only the 75th edition of the Glengarry Highland Games but also the100th anniversary of the RCAF and the 75th anniversary of the RCAF Pipes and Drums?

Well, we did and now the celebrations will be all the greater! Looking forward to it!

 

The MacCulloch Dancers

As sure as the granite foundations upon which Canada’s history was built, like wise the MacCulloch dancers have been underpinning Glengarry county and our Tattoo in the art of dance for generations. The energy, the joy, and smiles drive every performance!

 

Massed Bands

“By the centre, quick march!”

Nothing gets the blood stirring like the “skirl of the Pipes!” . Wave after wave, the colour, the sound and the pageantry of the Pipers & Drummers will leave you feeling breathless … and very Scottish!

 

Massed Highland Fling

Stamina, strength, grace and beauty ... with each intricate step and sway of the kilt Traditions lives on!

 

Drone show and fireworks

Happy 75th! ... awe-inspiring and "ending with a bang!"
