Stirling Highland Games is an outdoor event in Scotland. Do we need to say any more 🙂
The event is held within grass fields so appropriate footwear and clothing should be considered.
Our suggestion to visitors is wear / bring clothing based on what you have seen as the projected weather conditions. When it rains, it really rains so there will be mud. When the sun shines, it really shines! We cannot be held responsible for the Scottish weather.

Stirling Highland Games has a strict policy on bags. We ask you to bring only a small bag [hand bag size] where necessary.
Please respect our on-site security or Police Officers who may ask to search bags at the gates or on site at any time. 

No. Stirling Highland Games has no facility on site to hold baggage for visitors. Please arrange this with your transport provider, tour operator or accommodation provider.

No. As per our license, no food or drink may be brought into the event site.
There will be ample street food units, hot drink units and bar provision on site which should cover all needs.

Our only exception is for Highland dancers that are competing are permitted to bring a small 2m x 2m changing tent which must be situated within the designated area. Any highland dancing tents pitched outwith this area, will be asked to remove their tents.

We understand this might be confusing as there are several listings advising that the Bridge of Allan event is in Stirling, even located near Stirling Castle. It is not. Bridge of Allan Highland Games is located in the village of Bridge of Allan which is about 5 miles from the city of Stirling.
