Dear all,

Following the latest weather forecast, and after careful consideration, we have decided to postpone this year's Highland Games.

The forecast indicates severe weather conditions that would make it unsafe and impractical to hold the event as planned. While this is not the outcome we had hoped for, the safety and well-being of our attendees, participants, and team must come first.

All ticket holders will receive full refunds within the next week to their original method of payment. You do not need to take any further action to receive this – it will be done automatically.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and support. We are currently looking at possible future opportunities to bring the Highland Games back to Beijing once again and will keep you informed of any updates.

Thank you once again for your enthusiasm and engagement — we look forward to gathering again under more favourable conditions.

 

The British Chamber of Commerce in China, in partnership with the Scottish Government, Scottish Development International and the Beijing Scottish Society, is delighted to once again bring you a day full of Scottish fun at the seventh edition of the Highland Games.

The Highland Games have been a part of Scottish culture for hundreds of years, and the British Chamber is delighted to bring them to Beijing!

Want to show off your food or products at the Highland Games?

希望在高地运动会上推广您的特色美食或者商品？

We’re all here at the Highland Games to celebrate the best of Scotland! If you are a food, drink, or retail brand and think your products would suit the Highland Games, please contact us to showcase and sell your products on the day! Get in touch with events@britishchamber.cn to apply. Capacity is limited, and booths are subject to BritCham's approval.

• I moved to a new apartment. Do I need to re-register my dog?


• I won’t be able to register my dog until after the dog registration period is over on June 30th. Will this be a problem?

• Can I let my dog run off leash in the dog park inside my compound?
