Forres Highland Games

Must-see event, combining a cultural treat and a fun day for all the family.

Highland Games are as iconically Scottish as bagpipes, kilts and whisky – all of which feature heavily at any gathering.

The Games are also noted for their unique sporting and athletic events many of which involve throwing and lifting. These include the shot put, tug-o-war, caber toss and hammer throw - collectively known as heavy events.
