The Autumn Gathering

A weekend of dancing and discussion

The Autumn Gathering sees the largest number of dancers for any single RSCDS event gather over a weekend in Perth, Scotland. Some 500 dancers, principally from the UK, North America and continental Europe, take part in classes, discussion forums and workshops. Whether attending as delegates or spectators, all enjoy the social events which surround the business of the AGM. Attend a dance on the Friday ahead of Saturday evening’s civic reception and grand ball.

Saturday

A full day of events awaits all those who make their way to the Bell's Sports Centre on Saturday. From a talk on the RSCDS Archives to a general class, and of course the Open Forum and our Annual General Meeting, members will be immersed in all things Scottish Country Dance.

Carrying on from the day's activities is the evening Formal Ball, where attendees dress their best for a civic reception and a night of brilliance. 

Please note that attendees will need to book their own accommodation. We suggest booking early as local establishments tend to sell out quite fast.

Programme

A discussion with the Society's resident Archivist Alan Macpherson; time is TBD.
