The Games draw upwards of 12,000 people on the Saturday to enjoy the massed pipe bands, highland dancing competitions, pipers, drummers, food vendors & artisans, children’s activities, British food and cars, whisky tastings, live Celtic music and the general camaraderie of a family- friendly music festival in a central location, close to BC Ferry, with lots of parking. We’re a volunteer-run non-profit organization, and it takes a team to plan and deliver these Games each year. In 2026 we received support from all levels of government, great corporate friends and community contributors. Thank you very much.
