It's time for the Great Canadian Kilt Skate! Put on some tartan and join us on the ice as we celebrate Scottish culture and heritage in true Canadian fashion.

Kilt skates will be taking place all across Canada and even beyond our borders, with communities vying for the coveted title of “Kilt Skate Capital of Canada." Montreal won this honour in 2017: let's show the world our Scottish spirit and win it again!
