“Whether you’re tracing your Celtic heritage or simply seeking a unique experience, immerse yourself in the vibrant spirit of this beloved tradition,” event organizers wrote online.

There are 26 performers who will entertain the crowds this weekend, including headliner Piper Jones Band.

The band is described as “a lyrical, high energy trio based on the moving and beautiful sounds of the Highland bagpipes, accompanied by unique percussive chords from the bouzouki and inspired drums,” according to the event’s website.
