Four Day Scottish Heritage Festival, The Largest Gathering of the Clans in the US.

High in the Mountains of Western North Carolina the ancient Celtic spirit beckons. Answering the call, as hundreds of tartan banners unfurl, are the sounds of bagpipes echoing through the valley, and once again, thousands of kilt-clad Scots make their way to MacRae Meadows for their annual gathering and games. Nowhere in the New World is there a place more reminiscent of the Scottish Highlands than the home of America’s grandest Highland Games—Grandfather Mountain, North Carolina.

Ceud mile failte to you and your family as you join us in celebrating the history of our Scottish ancestry and cheer as you watch the clans compete on MacRae Meadows. Throughout the four day weekend you and your family will sample Scottish music, dancing, foods, costumes, field games and much more, and you can shop for tartans and kilts in the vendors’ tents. A weekend so full of family fun and excitement that you’ll be longing for the mother country (even if you aren’t Scottish).

And come visit Cape Woolamai and learn all about how Australia is steeped in Scottish heritage and craftsmanship.  We will be featuring authentic Australian Gear including the Coolamon Collection of Ice-Free Coolers, Spill-Free Wine Coasters, Sand-Free Beach Towels and Sun-Free Hats and the best in proper oilcloth outerwear.  Our customers the world over tell us how many problems an "ICE-FREE" Cooler solves!! And that's just the 'tip' of the iceberg!!

Come visit us and see what is new!   Experience a slice of the 'No Worries' Life! 

We'll see you on the Mountain!
