Appowila Highland Games

Oberstufenzentrum Mühlizelg, Abtwil SG

The biggest Highland Games in Eastern Switzerland with a large supporting program in Abtwil near St. Gallen.

Against the backdrop of the Highlands of Eastern Switzerland, the strongest men and women compete in typical Scottish sports such as log throwing, stone throwing, weight throwing, rope pulling and hammer throwing. A large medieval market surrounds the festival site. Various Irish-Scottish concerts and bagpipes from all over Switzerland are offered for the eyes and ears. There will also be a mead tavern, a whisky bar and culinary delights such as a Scottish food stall with haggies. For younger visitors, there are children's Highland Games, a fairytale tent and face painting. The whole family will get their money's worth.
