☘️ What a day!
The Long Island Celtic Festival and Highland Games brought a whole lot of music, tradition, competition and Celtic spirit to the Gardens on Saturday!
From the Highland Games and pipe and drum bands to Irish dancers, live music, and the Land of Wee Celts just to name a few, there was something happening around every corner. 🏴
A huge thank you to everyone who came out, performed, competed, volunteered, worked, danced, played, marched, cooked and helped make it such a great day.
Here’s a look back at some of our favorite highlights.☘️
