Go to the games at least once in your life even if you find the sound of bagpipes annoying. Hundreds of bagpipers playing at the same time will definitely give you goosebumps

The Games were amazing again this year .
However, the music tent was missing a little energy this year.
They could have used some help from the Bedlam Boys band who played the games in Mtl.
Cheers.
Looking forward to 2027
