The tent for the Scottish Studies Foundation was in the area of the Celtic Clans at the grounds of the Highlands of Durham Games in Uxbridge. Maggie McEwan provided copies of the maps and our GPS device wasn't used. My wife and I kept Maggie company at the tent until most of the events had ended.

DANCE AREAS



The location of the Highland Dancers was the area with raised stages as shown on the map. The Irish Dancers had a sound stage placed in the centre of the Celtic Clans area and in front of an Irish Society tent.

Watch a brief movie of some Highland dancers.


Here is a brief movie of some Irish dancers. The stage was at ground level with plenty of traffic.
