NH Highland Games & Festival
The NH Highland Games & Festival is one of the largest and most diverse Highland Games held in North America. This celebration of Scottish Heritage will be held from September 18-20, 2026 at Loon Mountain Resort in the White Mountains of New Hampshire at the beginning of fall foliage season in New England.
Our 3-day festival includes live music, Highland Dance, heavy athletics competitions, sheep dog trials, demonstrations, pageantry, massed bands and special birthday surprises. Try-It classes all day long in street curling, stone lifting, and more. Sign up for a seminar and explore topics ranging from Scottish cooking to genealogy. Fun for all ages with special kids programming and opportunities to shop in Vendor Village.
