Your support makes this event possible
We count on our Friends donations to ensure that we can offer a full range of activities during our festival. Being a Friend of the Games provides you with:
- A tax deductible receipt for all donations over $25;
- Note: mailing address is required for tax receipts.
- Please note that in accordance with Canada Revenue Agency rules, the value of each complimentary festival pass ($75) that a donor receives will be deducted from the eligible amount of the donor’s tax receipt. Donors are now able to choose the number of passes they wish to receive with their donation up to the maximum number of passes offered for each pledge level. If you prefer not to receive complimentary passes, please indicate this when you donate.
- All donors will have access to the Friends Tent regardless of whether they choose to receive festival passes.
- Access to the comfortable, dry and shaded Friends Tent.
- Invitation(s) to the Friends of the Games Reception at Government House on Friday evening of the Festival weekend.
- Complimentary sandwiches, snacks and non-alcoholic beverages in the Friends Tent.
- Complimentary pass(es) that grant access to the Festival, including the Saturday night concert at Officers’ Square.
Our 2025 Games will have all the crowd favourites; the Heavy Events competitions, Highland Dance, piping and drumming competitions and of course, massed bands at our opening and closing ceremonies! In addition, our Saturday Night Ceilidh will feature live entertainment from Alan Doyle that you won’t want to miss!
