The Austin Celtic Festival Celebrates Irish and Scottish Culture This November

Austin is a hub for culture and music, which is what makes it the perfect place to celebrate Irish and Scottish traditions. The Austin Celtic Festival has been doing this for two decades. This November 4th and 5th, the fest returns to Pioneer Farms with a lineup of live music, dancing, and other forms of educational fun.

When you come to the festival, bring family or a group of friends along to enjoy the live Celtic music played by both international and local artists. Check out the Scottish country dancing, the Irish step dancing, and other quick-paced performances. Take part in the Highland Games, which include everything from strongman competitions to the caber toss, or just watch while other athletes face off. Of course, there will also be ample opportunities to learn about Celtic culture at the Celtic Village, and you can grab some authentic Irish or Scottish food between activities, too.
