2021 Tacoma Highland Games are Cancelled
The Tacoma Highland Games Association is regrettably announcing the cancellation of the 51St Annual Tacoma Games that were to be held on June 26, 2021. Washington’s Roadmap to Recovery has not yet defined gatherings beyond Phase 2 and unfortunately, Phase 2 restricts outdoor gatherings to a degree that we are unable to host the Games. To #savetacomagames we had to consider not only the health and welfare of our patrons, competitors, volunteers, and guests but also speculate as to when the vaccine will be available to all and how gatherings in Phase 3 and beyond will be defined. This drew us to the inevitable conclusion that we must cancel the event for another year.
We are hoping the Roadmap to Recovery will allow us to hold a small event in the Fall as more of us are vaccinated through the Spring and Summer. Please continue to check the website and Facebook for details regarding the Fall Fling and new virtual events.
Although we had to cancel the games during these unprecedented times, The Tacoma Games were given of a new beginning and we will be back even stronger in 2022! Please follow us on Facebook, Instagram and check our website for updates.
