Are you ready for some haggis? Central Florida's most unusual sports event is back.

The 45th Central Florida Scottish Highland Games brings food, drink, sport and music to Winter Springs on Jan. 14-15.

See Celtic strongmen and women attempt to flip the caber, carry massive stones, toss chained iron overhead, all while serenaded by some of the finest bagpipers in the world. It’s all topped off by a massive party and concert Saturday night featuring the long-awaited return of Enter the Haggis, plus Albannach and Off Kilter.

It’s all at Winter Springs’ Central Winds Park, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, and 8:45 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. Visit flascot.com for more information and tickets.
