The Corby Highland Gathering is an event like no other, dedicated to celebrating the town’s Scottish heritage.
The event has a long-standing history, dating back to 1968, and the Highland Gathering Committee wants to preserve and promote this heritage for generations to come.
For 2024 they’ve said they will be ‘going big’, so with that in mind, here are some pictures from previous years to help you build anticipation for this year’s event.
