The Victoria Highland Dancing Association is a volunteer run organization that has been formed to help support highland dancing in our community. We are affiliated with the Royal Scottish Official Board of Highland Dancing, Scotdance BC, and Scotdance Canada. We organize and host three competitions a year, as well as semi-regular workshops and ceilidh events. We strive to share and encourage our culture and traditions through dance.
We are always looking for sponsors who want to support our community, our dancers, and scottish heritage. If you are interested in donating to our Association, please contact us.
You can also find us on facebook at facebook.com/victoriahighlanddance and Instagram @victoriahighland.dance
