Welcome to the WSF

Céad míle fáilte! (Scottish Gaelic – A Hundred Thousand Welcomes)

After a successful 25th Anniversary in 2018, we’re very much looking forward to the 26th Winnipeg Scottish Festival taking place on Saturday, March 23, 2019.

2019 marks a new chapter for WSF, as we’re pleased to announce we’re moving the festival to the downtown campus at the University of Winnipeg! Band events will take place in the beautiful and acoustically friendly Eckhardt Gramatte Hall (see below), with solo events taking place in adjacent classrooms and lecture halls. 

The downtown location provides an excellent landscape in terms of accommodations and amenities. The Holiday Inn & Suites is steps away from the University of Winnipeg and we’re in the process of arranging a group rate for traveling bands. 

There will be more information to follow regarding events, accommodations, adjudicators, and social activities, but we wanted to pass along these details regarding the date and location of the event as soon as we were able to.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me directly should you have any questions regarding WSF 2019.
Thanks for your time, and we hope to see you all in 2019!
