About the Event
The Scotland County Highland Games are the only Scottish Games and Gathering located within the old Highland Scottish settlement of the Upper Cape Fear and Pee Dee regions of the Carolinas. This region was home to the largest settlement of Highland Scots in all of North America until well into the 19th century. The surnames and some placenames found within the surrounding 10 counties of North Carolina and the neighboring counties of South Carolina bear testimony to the size and scope of this significant historic settlement and its legacy.
