The experience

What's special

The Central Florida Scottish Highland Games are held each January at Central Winds Park in Winter Springs, Florida, organized by the Scottish-American Society of Central Florida. The two-day Scottish festival draws thousands for traditional Highland heavy athletics such as caber tossing, Highland dancing, bagpipes and fife and drum, whisky tasting, Celtic artisans and Scottish food

What people love

Regular visitors describe it as a lot of fun and single out the strength games like caber tossing and the pipes. Some reviewers note a boozy, adult-leaning atmosphere that may not suit younger children, and first-timers are warned to expect noise and large crowds

Last time around

The 48th games ran January 17 to 18, 2026 at Central Winds Park, with Highland athletics, Highland dancing, whisky tasting and Celtic artisans
