Optional questions:
How far do you typically travel to attend a Highland Games or Celtic Festival?
20 to 500 miles.
How important is "ambience" of such an event to you? Can you give an example of good "ambience"?
Lots of good pipe bands, good authentic Highland Dress vendors, high-quality Scottish/Irish/English beers on draught.

What is the biggest "turn off" perpetrated by Games/Festival organizers?
Loud "Celtic Rock" bands in the middle of everything.
Beer vendors only selling Bud Light etc.
By the way "bagpiping" is a single word.
