New Hampshire Highland Games

So much fun!
Between the games themselves, the sheep herding, bagpiping, and everything else, it was a very good time.
Reason for knocking off a star is the lack of any sorts of food options that don’t contain meat and/​or gluten. My wife is a vegetarian, and there was nothing. I can’t do gluten, and once again nothing. I know it’s scottish, but I feel like there should be *some* options?

SO much fun!!!
Great for kids and families.

The New Hampshire Highland Games should be something on everyone’s bucket list. My fiancée and I have been coming up for the past 4 – 5 years and are never disappointed. Food, music and crowd is always spot on!
Every year we come up, we spend the weekend of the three days the event is going on enjoying the games, the music and of course, the food! Meat pies, lamb stew and everything else is always soooo good. Pipers from all over the US and Canada come in and nothing sounds better than the pipes blasting over the White Mountains! We initially came up to support my good friend from Scotland who is in one of, if not, the most popular band and quickly turned out to become a tradition. The beer tents are always a blast when sitting and getting a drink and all of a sudden a piper comes in and starts blasting away.
If your not a fan of the bagpipes or not of Scottish decent, trust me, for the weekend EVERYONE is Scottish and you will leave being a huge fan. Even the Lincoln Police are dressed up in kilts for the weekend, classic!

Men in kilts tossing cabers, women in kilts throwing hammers, what’s not to love?
Without a doubt the best highland games I’ve been to with marching bands, Celtic bands, venders coming from all over New England, Canada, and beyond. The food was awesome, where else can you find fast food haggis by the gallon? Something as simple as bread pudding made into something to die for by adding whisky sauce — OMG!
Meat pies, bridies, sausage rolls, bangers, rumbledethumps, cock — leekie — soup, scotch broth, lamb stew, shepherd’s pie, scotch eggs, shaved lamb on a roll, pasties. In yet another tent they had tons of seafood including scotch salmon, highland crab soup… but no finnan haddie or cullen skink — what’s up with that???
Did I mention the whisky tasting? Didn’t make it that far — too busy sampling the scotch ales!
The games are spread out all over the place and you could easily spend a day (or two) here checking out all the clan booths, games, bands, singers, border collie contests, etc.
You can even buy yourself a 100% legal title — a lordship or ladyship as you will by donating money to save the Scottish Highlands, well you actually purchase a few square feet of land and the titles come with it… Lord Fin of Glencoe, etc.
Did I mention lasses in mini kilts?
