Newtonmore Highland Games

Don't miss this incredible family-friendly event on Saturday August 2rd 2025. Join us and enjoy the spectacle of the kilted ‘Heavies’ and get goosebumps courtesy of the massed pipe bands echoing out across the games field. The Highland dancers will be up on stage to entertain us too, and your kids can join in with any number of track events - or maybe you fancy the Haggis eating competition!?
There's a variety of stalls, family-friendly rides and games, our iconic Hill run up Creag Dhubh, and the annual Macpherson Rally with all of its colour and traditions. Burger-vans, ice-creams and other refreshments including the beer tent will be available as well as lots of stalls to browse.
New for 2025, the over 40s six-aside shinty tournament, and we're so excited that Newtonmore Camanachd club are bringing this thrilling spectator sport to the event.
Events start on the Eilan (free parking) from 11am, and you can watch the pipe bands march through the village to the Games field from 1pm. See social media posts for more details as we get closer to the date.
