2024 Arisaig Highland Games

The 2023 Games were a great success with a large crowd, great weather and top quality competitors across all the event groups. A big thank you to all who attended or competed at the Games and to all of our sponsors and helpers who made the event possible.

For full details of the 2023 results and photo galleries of the event, visit our Facebook page.

The Arisaig Highland Games will return next summer with the usual mix of Piping, Highland Dancing, Heavy events and Track & Field. The Games are followed by a traditional Ceilidh in the village hall in the evening.

The Games will be held on Wednesday 31st July at Traigh Farm, Arisaig, and will be officially opened at 12 noon by the Games Chieftain.

For 2023, we introduced some changes to the Dancing and Junior piping competitions. The prize money across all of the Open dancing competitions has been substantially increased – full details to follow on the Dancing competition page of the website and via our Facebook page.

The Junior piping will now have a separate draw at 12:30pm and the competition will start around 1pm.

Our sponsors from Ardnamurchan Distillery will be present at the field in their marquee offering whisky tastings and the opportunity to purchase some of their single malts.

We accept both card and cash payments at the entrance gate, but please be aware that many of the trade stands and refreshment stalls will be cash only!

Thank you for your continued support of Arisaig Highland Games and we hope to see you next summer!

The venue is the scenic location of Traigh Farm, Arisaig with sweeping views across sandy beaches towards the Cuillins of Skye & the Small Isles of Eigg and Rhum.
