The Highland Games are something you'd expect to see in Scotland, but today the kilt-wearing enthusiasts brought their talents to Panama City.

Saturday was the start of the 21st annual Highland Games and Scottish Festival.

Bag pipes kicked off the celebration at Grace Presbyterian Church.
Hundreds came from all over to experience a little bit of the Scottish culture.

Besides the great music, there were traditional Irish and Scottish dancers and plenty of unique food like haggis.

The Highland Games includes the caber toss, Scottish hammer throwing, and the farmer's walk.
