Welcome to Mountain Maryland!

Highland Festivals are traditionally filled with activities and entertainment for all ages. Most lads and lasses expect to hear the skirl of the pipes and the rhythms of the drums, but there is so much more!

Vendors will be selling handcrafted Celtic jewelry, pottery, crystals and minerals, Celtic artifacts, stained glass, handmade wool rugs and clothes, children's Scottish books and original art prints, wrought iron items, clothes, and Scottish deli items.

Enjoy a variety of food, including Scottish pasties, funnel cakes, Scottish shortbread, European chocolates, sausages, hamburgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, fries, and smoothies.
