Dunedin Celtic Music and Craft Beer Festival

After a challenging year for planning festivals, the Dunedin Celtic Festival is back on this month. This year, the festival plans to make a return just as amazing as before and encourages its loyal supporters and new friends to come out and experience what true Celtic fun looks like. The festival has lowered its prices as a “thank you” to supporters both past and present. The Dunedin Scottish Arts Foundation is a non-profit organization that raises money to support the Scottish Arts education and advancement in Dunedin by supporting the school and community Scottish Arts programs: Highland Dancing, Middle School and High School Pipe Band teaching programs, and of course the City of Dunedin Pipe Band. Supporting the education programs is more important than ever and your donation will go a long way, according to the event page. At the same time, if you may be in a position to help beyond your ticket price, please consider making a donation to the GoFundMe page to help support the Dunedin Highland Games survive these challenging times. We hope to see many of you at our Celtic Festival event, on Saturday, November 20, and at our Highland Games next year. Thank you for your continued friendship and support.
