Apologies for the website being down for maintenance.

It will be re-open for bookings on the 1st May. In the meantime, the programme for the day is below.

11th July 2026 with the Màrtainn Skene Trio
The dances are paired together in degree of difficulty, and some pairs of dances are aimed at the junior teams and beginners, while other pairs are more challenging and aimed at experienced dancers. Team leaders select as few or as many dances as they wish, either singly or as pairs,  from the programme to suit the dancers in their team.

In the afternoon (1.30 – 5.00), the massed dancing will be interspersed with the demonstration dances and Highland dances. Full details of how it all fits together are published below.
