Arguably the most iconic of the competitive "Games", our Highland Athletes will take their field and spend two full days competing in many of the traditional highland athletic events. These include: The Hammer Throw, The Weight Throw and Weight Toss, The Stone of Strength (featuring our own little piece of Stone Mountain), The Sheaf Toss and of course the Caber Toss.

Competitions for Professional Masters, Professional, Amateur A, and Amateur B Divisions take place on Saturday. The Women's Division command the field on Sunday. Keeping with the traditions of competition between the Clans, there will be a special Clan Challenge event on Sunday as well.

Stone Mountain Highland Games hosts two full days of Highland Dance competition. Dancers of all ages from throughout the United States and Canada will take their turn on our special dance stages vying for those coveted prizes awarded for the best performance.

Both days will feature the traditional "Highland" dances as well as several Scottish National dances.

If you like to see the Pipe Bands, then Saturday afternoon is the time! Stone Mountain Highland Games features one of the largest fields of competitive bands in the Southeast. Owing to our strategic placement at the end of the competitive season for the Eastern United States Pipe Band Association, it is typical to see 30 pipe bands from around the country take over the main parade field for an all-afternoon competition.

There will be an Open Solo Piping event on Friday evening at the Host hotel in Norcross Georgia.

Solo Piping and Drumming events for all other grades will take place Saturday morning at Stone Mountain Park.
