Join the City of Armadale to celebrate all things Scottish at the largest Highland Gathering event held in Western Australia that has people saying things like… “It’s different, the vibe is amazing, dogs are super cute, people are amazing and friendly to chat with, it’s a very unique event that really highlights a true highland gathering.” Also: “This event made a great day out for the family. I got to experience home away from home for a day! Such a connected and community vibe felt through the whole event. 10/10 would recommend and I will be back joining in again next year!”
And finally, “Come along for a fantastic day of fun with family and friends. The Armadale Highland Gathering is one of Perth’s best kept secrets for a wonderful immersion in all things Scottish.”
Variety of Scottish delights
The morning of Sunday 6 October begins with the fun and quirky Perth Kilt Run, the biggest and only fun run in Australia that’s done in a kilt! Run, walk or wheel the 2.5km Classic or 5km Warrior course, and for the first time… dogs are officially invited to participate in the Perth Kilt Run for 2024 (2.5km Classic course only.) BYO kilt or purchase one with registration – it’s a charity fun run with a difference and you’re guaranteed to have a good time. As you’d expect… the excitement doesn’t stop there.
Following the Perth Kilt Run, we roll straight into the Highland Gathering where you’ll have the rest of the day to experience Highland dancing, pipe bands and heavy event competitions, meet and greet Scottish dogs, explore Clan histories, watch friendly battles between the medieval groups in the arena, revel in live music, test your taste buds with the variety of Scottish delights, and lots more! This is a family friendly and smoke/vape free event hosted by the City of Armadale at Champion Lakes Regatta Centre.
