The old location by Lewisville Lake was cool, but the current location may be even better. There's live music, arts and crafts, kids playground and fun zone, and 10-15 hot air balloons. The event is free, but parking is $5. A great deal and fun times had by all. Looking forward to next year!

This was a great event. It was my first time attending so I do not know what the previous location…read morewas like. The current location is easy to find and there are multiple parking options, from the park lot ($5 and based on availability), to the school parking lot a good walk away, to the nearby neighborhoods. We parked in the pay lot since it was closest and the proceeds went to a good cause, and the festival was free. There was a good amount of balloons and the lighting of them was the best part. Otherwise, there was a tethered balloon ride, live music and tons of booths selling food and other trinkets. There was also a children's area with inflatables that was a nominal fee to partake in. The best children's activity was the train ride that took you all around the park. The line for this was long. And if that wasn't enough, the park playground was also a good option to entertain.

Lots of fun, and all things considered priced about as you'd expect. It's not super huge so it's…read moreeasily doable and all the food you'd expect to be at a fair is here and is spot on. There is a $5 entry fee per person starting this year which is reasonable imo. Parking is expensive if you pay on site so book ahead to save 1/2 on that front. You'll probably want to get that a day ahead though as you want to be able to snag it for your preferred time. That said there is. Rides are mostly 5 per with the occasional 6 to mess up your spending balance;) most games are 5 for one shot and 10 for 3. $tandard fare for a fair but wait! What's nice is you can add single credits though so yay! No extra fees for using the card other than buying a card initially for 3 bucks. Daytime is easier to visit of course but you don't get the lights. Nighttime you get more crowds but lights so choose ;)

This is an event our family looks forward to every year!…read more The music and musicianship is unparalleled and it's great to see members from different bands stop in and play with one-another. It gives a real feeling of camaraderie and family. And that feeling of camaraderie and unity goes beyond the music to the people attending the festival. Everyone is friendly and forthcoming. While the emphasis is primarily on the music and the games, there are a lot of great events that go overlooked. (I mentioned this to the yelper who complained that it's just about drinking beer and wearing kilts.) The opening ceremony, the dog show, the many presentations on Scottish families and culture, the discussions you strike up at the clan tents,and most of all the Sunday Morning Church Service. I'm not the most religious guy in the world, but I find the interdenominational service very moving. And it's the only worship service where I can bring my dog, as many others do. So it's no just interdenominational, it's interbreed! To really get the best out of the Festival, go online and check the schedule. Many of the events happen only once over the course of the Festival, so don't risk the possibility of missing out on events you might possibly want to see. We'll see you there! Look for a couple with a Golden Retriever. And introduce yourself!

This was our first visit to the Texas Scottish Festival, and it was great! I'll be frank upfront…read moreand say that our main draw was one of the bands (Jiggernaut; one of my friends is in the band and they're awesome, check 'em out!), but we were pleasantly surprised at all there was on offer, even though we only attended on Sunday afternoon. The food choices had dwindled a bit (no Scottish eggs, I had a sad), but what was left was pretty good from our samplings, although perhaps not strictly Scottish fare (jambalaya, anyone?). I'm not a huge beer drinker, but there were plenty of brews available and and a number of locations. As for the non-food, non-band offerings: There was a huge marketplace spread throughout the grounds, selling everything from period correct clothing, jewelry and other items, plus lots of family shields/coats-of-arms etc. Many of the vendors were dressed in period clothing as well, lending a good feel to the whole event. If there was a knock at all, it was that some of the cable protectors placed across walkways were too tall for my wife's handicap cart; they need to consider some ramps on top of these in the future. Other than that, keep up the great work!
