One of the best ways to celebrate life in the Peach State is to attend a festival in Georgia, and we certainly have plenty of them to choose from. Each season brings its own array of events, and many of the state’s most popular festivals take place in the fall. One of the longest-running festivals in Georgia has been happening for nearly 50 years and occurs annually in the small town of Stone Mountain. This year’s Stone Mountain Highland Games and Scottish Festival is scheduled for October 20-22, 2023. It’s one of the largest Scottish festivals in the southeastern United States, and it’s always a blast. Even if you’re not of Scottish decent, everyone’s Scottish for the weekend at the Stone Mountain Highland Games!
