After a year’s absence, the Highland Games return to Kingsville on Saturday, June 27th, 2026, in a new location.

“People from all over the world come to our little neck of the woods to compete in the games,” said Mayor Dennis Rogers.

The Games will be held at Colasantis Tropical Gardens and will feature piping and drumming, heavy events, Highland dancers, sheep herding and shearing demonstrations, a tug-of-war contest, and a Haggis Hurl competition between mayors.

Tickets are already on sale at kingsvillehighlandgames.ca at the early bird rate of $15.00. Children 12 and under are free.

The games were cancelled in 2025 due to scheduling conflicts. In 2024, they were held at the Canadian Transportation Museum & Heritage Village.
