BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: We are moving our date! Due to an increased number of local events during our Annual May date, the St. Andrew's Society of Central Illinois Executive Board, along with input from our Ancient Athletics Unit, has chosen to move our date to the fall to pursue higher attendance, more athletes, more vendors, more events, more clans, and a BIGGER and BETTER Highland Games! We are pleased to still host this event at the Sangamon County Fairgrounds in New Berlin, IL on October 19, 2024!

All Games Forms will be available on the website in the next few days: Clan Row, Vendor Forms, Sponsorship Forms, and British Car Show Application. Payments can now be made online for these fees as well! Site here: springfield-area-highland-games---st-andrews-society-of-centra.square.site

Volunteers are NEEDED! Please consider joining the Highland Games Committee or signing up to help out the day of the event! Committee Meeting Dates and Sign Up Information to follow - stay tuned on this page for updates!

We are looking forward to the continued community support of our Annual Springfield Area Highland Games, and we hope to extend our outreach across the Midwest and beyond. It is an honor and pleasure to share our Celtic Culture with you!
