The Fort Nottingham Highland Gathering
Fort Nottingham Museum: Wed 9 Aug
The calm quiet of sleepy hamlet, the beautiful Fort Nottingham, will be awoken to the distinctive sounds of bagpipes, drums, marching bands and all things Scottish, as the annual Fort Nottingham Highland Gathering joyously returns to the KZN Midlands – this time on Women’s Day, Wed 9 August.
Inspired by the world famous Braemar Gathering, the Fort Nottingham Highland Gathering is typically a day of nostalgia, heritage and ancient tradition. All the rousing spectacle, athletic prowess and hauntingly beautiful music will be celebrated in abundance – with a contemporary family-friendly local twist. Athletics: tossing the caber; tug-o’-war, walk the weight, the kilted mile; hammer throw; weight over the bar and stone putt; complemented by Celtic dancing, piped bands… and of course, the rousing bag pipes. Guests are invited to get into the spirit of the occasion by wearing tartan, eating shortbread and sampling whisky!
Good to Know:
Bring picnic blankets, sun hats, warm clothing and fold up chairs.
