About Me


THE UTAH SCOTTISH ASSOCIATION DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE. WE WELCOME ALL CELTS, PICTS, GAELS, ANGLES, WEARERS OF THE KILT, PLAYERS OF THE MUSIC, SPEAKERS OF THE LANGUAGE, ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN THE CULTURES OF THE 7 NATIONS.
WE BELIEVE IN UNITY.
UNITE!
The Utah Scottish Association is a non-profit organization. It was founded in 1976, 100 years after the first Scottish festival was held in Salt Lake City.
It exists to promote and perpetuate Utah's rich Scottish heritage.
The Utah Scottish Association Annual functions include:

Robert Burns Supper
Tartan Ball
Scottish Festival and Highland Games

Other events throughout the year include lectures, demonstrations, displays and other activities to help Scots, Scottish-Americans, Scotland lovers and their descendants learn more about, and participate in, their Celtic culture.
