Location: Lansdowne Park Skating Rink, near the Aberdeen Pavillion

The Great Canadian Kilt Skate has gone international! Saturday, February 21, 2026 will see Ottawa join with communities across Canada and Renfrewshire, Scotland, in celebrating with bare knees and ice Canada’s longstanding connections to Scotland.

Come join us on the rink. You don’t need a kilt; just wear something with Canada’s favourite colour: tartan!

Organizer: Scottish Society of Ottawa
