Our History

In 1967, we began to raise funds to strengthen Dunedin’s Scottish heritage through music and performing arts. The games and festivals serve to entertain and share our Scottish culture. As a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization, our proceeds benefit the Scottish Arts Programs in the City of Dunedin.
