For many the Glenfinnan Gathering is the focus of a celebration of a way of life now long gone. For one day in a year it is almost possible to transport back in time and envisage what it must have been like on that day in August 1745 when the Prince raised his Standard.

Traditional Games held amidst spectacular and historic scenery, with piping, dancing, athletics and children's competitions/events.

On the games field there is usually a licensed beer tent, hog roast, tea/coffee, sandwiches, burgers, ice cream, side shows and a variety of stalls with locally crafted goods for sale.

The Games are held on a yearly basis on the Saturday nearest to the 19th August.

The Games dance starts at 8pm with the brilliant Glenfinnan Ceilidh Band.
