6th Annual Elk Mountain Highland Games & May Day Festival

There are not many festivals where you can watch a cob earth oven-being built, medieval combat skills in action, an edged weapons competition, heavy Scottish athletics and horseback vaulting.

THIS is the one that will give you all of the above, and more!

Wander through the artisan's Village and around the colorful twenty-foot May Pole, an ancient spring tradition from cultures around the world, to the front field where strong men and women are competing in Scottish Heavy Athletics, throwing stones and tossing the caber.

Welcome to the Elk Mountain Highland Games & May Day Festival, an eclectic event that pulls the past into the present.

Our festival aims to bring together the elements that make southern Oregon unique, adding elements of the celtic highland culture & modern skills, as well as celebrating the return of spring.

Join us for a memorable family friendly event. It will be the most fun you'll have all year!
$10 Admission for adults - children are free.
