Step into the heart of our rural community for a Scottish festival with a Kiwi twist. From caber tossing to Highland dancing, bagpipes to traditional food, the Hororata Highland Games is packed with culture, entertainment, competition, and country fun.
Hear the skirl of the pipes, watch the strength of the athletes in events like the Hororata Stones, and experience the energy of over 100 Highland dancers. This is more than a spectator event – all ages can get involved and have a go.
With a Scottish farmyard, sheep shearing, medieval knights, live music, carnival rides and over 120 market stalls, there’s something for everyone.
A truly unique day out celebrating strength, culture, and community.
