What is the Gathering of the Clans Highland Festival?

Gathering of the Clans Highland Festival (or GOTCHF, pronounced 'got-cheff') is a day full of Scottish themed activities, such as heavy events, highland dancing, a kids zone, vendor village, food trucks and more. 

Ceilidh (Dance)- pronounced kay-lee is a social gathering involving dancing, storytelling and live music. This year we are proud to welcome the award winning Derina Harvey Band as the crown jewel of our festival! And in true Scottish spirit there will, of course, be a bar!
