Grampian Festivals

Over 25 Years at the forefront of Scottish Highland Dance Festivals and Events!
Grampian Festivals was formed in early 1980’s to bring the various festivals run by Lawrence Dance Academy under one umbrella.

The Dance Festivals were originally run in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire and enabled highland dancers the opportunity to compete against their peers and also to promote friendship and camaraderie amongst the dancing fraternity. The Grampian Festivals team is comprised of International Adjudicators and Qualified Dance Teachers in addition to dedicated helpers from all walks of life.
