The Alma Highland Festival is one of the nation’s premiere Scottish Festivals, celebrating Alma’s rich Scottish heritage. Now, in it’s 57th year, the Festival is a two-day event filled with world-class Highland Dance competitions, Bagpipes and Drumming, Scottish athletic events, multiple music venues displaying Scottish talent, children’s games, reenactment events, craft shows and much more. Many families enjoy the Festival Race and then spend the rest of the day, or the entire weekend at the Festival events. Come see why Alma is known as Scotland USA!
