A colourful programme awaits all those interested, from literature to singing to the joint ceilidh, a traditional Scottish dance. Whether you prefer to watch or participate, there’s something for everyone here.

The Scot-t Fest is open to everyone, young and old, with or without a kilt. So make a note of the date and come to our Scot-t Fest in Rheinland-Pfalz.
