Highland Games 2023: The thrill of Scotland returns to Beijing!
Thank you for joining us for the
2023 Highland Games!
For the fifth year running, the British Chamber brought Scottish traditions to over 1,500 guests in Beijing through our annual Highland Games. Over a stunning afternoon of fun in the sun, guests were treated to dancing, traditional Scottish games, and delicious food and drink.
The Highland Games
Guests were put through their paces at traditional Highland Games, including a shot put, tug of war, tyre flip, and more.
Thank you to Trainyard for running the activities!
The games are on!
The Beijing Scottish Society also led a ceilidh, where we were delighted to be joined by His Majesty’s Ambassador Caroline Wilson to demonstrate this traditional Scottish dance.

The best of Scotland in Beijing
Our Scottish Pavilion, in partnership with Scottish Development International (SDI), showcased the best of Scottish brands - including top whisky brands, soaps, and even representatives from seven of Scotland's top universities.
Thank you to SDI for their support in hosting the Scottish Pavilion, and for their support in making the day a success!

Our sponsor British School of Beijing, Shunyi ran a wonderful day of kids' activities, keeping all our younger attendees entertained throughout the event.
In addition to their sponsorship of the event, Bluestar AMG ran a draw for a free iPad during the event. Congratulations to the lucky winner!
We were also joined by some of Scotland and Beijing’s best vendors and brands, selling everything from haggis and whisky to highland soaps and fish and chips – making it a truly Scottish event.
We are indebted to the sponsorship of Asian Tigers Moving and Relocation Services, who provided tents to keep all our vendors out of the warm Beijing sun.
Thank you to all our vendors!
All for a good cause
