What to expect

  1. The Braemar Gathering
    12h · Admission ticket not included
    We cross the River Forth and head through Perthshire known as the Heart of Scotland, surrounded by Wild deer and Pheasant and down into Royal Deeside. The festivities are fit for Her majesty Queen Elizabeth the First of Scotland.
    While there have been Gatherings of one sort or another at Braemar since the days of King Malcolm Canmore, nine hundred years ago, the Gathering as we know it has been organized by the Braemar Royal Highland Society for only 187 years. But during much of that time large crowds have come each year to acclaim their Monarch as Chieftain of the Braemar Gathering. Every Gathering is a memorable occasion. International athletes will be among those taking part in the "heavy" and "track" events. Pipers and dancers will be of the usual high standard while teams from H.M. Forces will compete in the Inter-Services Unit Tug of War Championship and in the Services Medley Relay Race.
