The Games Are Afoot

The Games Are Afoot

This weekend of this festival came before I knew it and I didn’t have a post prepared for this years event.  Then this morning I decided to attend some of the event.  Specifically I wanted to hear the “Brothers” from Australia.  I read in the paper they were performing 4 sessions during the two day event.  This morning I went to the website for the festival and found it a nightmare to navigate and try and find schedules and quick information.  Thus this post.

The Scottish Highland Games

Where:  Rillito Park near River and First

The games run both today and tomorrow.  This schedule I did find rather easily.  Here is the direct link to the Scottish Highland Games 2009.

Fees to attend the Festival and Games

This also wasn’t easily located.  You have to scroll down on this page to find the fee schedule.

In brief:

Parking $2

Entrance for Adults $12  with a can good for the food bank $10

For a complete breakdown of age groups fees check the page mentioned above and scroll down.

Music Schedule for Celtic Festival

This one I couldn’t find at all.  It listed who but not when.  Therefore I decided even at this late date to write this post for those looking online for information on what music will be on stage when. Since it is already Noon, I’ll skip the acts already over.
