Bethabara Celtic Festival and Highland Games

**reni** · 3rd May 14, 08:26 AM

This post is for especially the NC residents, and any other Scots that would like to join the Nesbitt/Nisbet's next weekend! We are attending the Bethabara Celtic Festival and Highland Games in Winston-Salem, NC. The music festival and Games are next Friday and Saturday, May 9th and 10th. You can attend the Ceilidh Friday evening at the Community Arts Café. There will be plenty of Celtic food and music! Saturday the Games begin at 10:30 a.m. The festival is held on the grounds of the Historic Bethabara Park, where you'll also be able to tour the historical buildings for free. The festival and Games are free also! What a great way to celebrate spring. You can take in some history, music and Highland Games all at the same time! Come see the Nesbitt/Nisbet tent Saturday and join the fun!

We will have the Quaich in the Nesbitt/Nisbet tent Saturday. Plan to come by for a wee dram, photo op, and sign the log. See you Saturday!
