  • The Glenfinnan Gathering is one of many Highland Games and Gatherings where Scots celebrate their heritage and traditions. It's also a comfortable homecoming for many. Glenfinnan is particularly notable because it is the site where Bonny Prince Charlie came ashore to rally the Highlanders to the cause of the Jacobites, which was to end disastrously at the Battle of Culloden. Events include the heavy events like the tossing of the caber, bagpipe and dancing competitions, tug of war, as well as the White Cockade Society which gathers to swear allegiance to the Jacobite cause, with a toast on the site where Prince Charlie stood. Also shown is dancing at the Glenfinnan Hotel in the evening.

  • Beltane Fire Festival on Calton Hill in Edinburgh, Scotland.  Event has been going on for years and has grown ever larger, now boasting over 300 performers and 10,000 to 15,000 spectators.  For many in the festival it is a sacred event, welcoming spring. The central figure is the May Queen who marches from station to station to receive the admirations of Earth, Air, Fire, etc.  Her "White Women" are tempted by Red Men.  Eventually the foliage of last year is stripped from her escort whom she then brings back to life.   Blue men act as security and crowd control, whipping those who will not obey.  Columns are a landmark of Calton Hill.
