Hogmanay; Scottish New Year's Eve


  • Williamstown Museum 19651 John Street Williamstown, On Canada (map)

Ring in the New Year in a true Glengarry fashion with our traditional Scottish-style Hogmanay! Hogmanay is hosted at the museum by both the Williamstown Fire Department and the GNLM. Each year we have outdoor fun with sleigh rides, fireworks, and a bonfire—those Scots sure do love their fire! Indoor fun can be found in the way of good food, a cash bar, and live Celtic music! This is the perfect family event for winter and also a great alternative to expensive New Year’s Eve outings as our Hogmanay is free to the public (of course we never turn down a donation to help out the museum and firefighters). Please check back prior to the ‘eve of’ for any pertinent weather updates.
