Gourock Highland Games

About Gourock Highland Games

Once again the games will include traditional heavy events like tossing the caber and hammer throwing and will continue to include female competitors after their introduction last year was hailed a success.

The games will also feature Highland dancing and piping, as well as arts and crafts stalls featuring creative makers from across Scotland, local traders and community groups. There will also be a great selection of street food, baked goods and drinks, with something for all tastes.

Inverclyde Council’s library service will be delivering fun, family-friendly activities throughout the day including their popular Bookbug sessions for babies, toddlers, pre-schoolers and families.

Inverclyde Active Schools’ mini Highland Games will involve youngsters from local schools, and there will be fun for the whole family including fair rides, a climbing wall, bungee trampolines and more.

The Gourock Highland Games are the first of the season and are organised in partnership with the Royal Scottish Highland Games Association (RSHGA).
