The Rio Grande Valley Celtic Festival is proud to host many styles of Celtic dance. Scottish Highland Dancing is a celebration of the Scottish spirit. The dances are a spectacular combination of movement, music, and costume. They are generally danced solo, and in competition the music is typically a tune on the bagpipes. The dances are great fun and anyone, not just with a Scottish heritage, who thrills to the sound of the bagpipes, can join in and learn the dances.
The dance stage will host a Scottish Highland dance The dance scompetition Saturday afternoon. Saturday morning and all day Sunday there will be demonstrations from a variety of dance groups, including Scottish Country, Irish Ceili, Irish Set, and Irish Step dancers.
