Kilt skates celebrate Scotland’s contribution to North America’s multicultural heritage in a unique way that highlights the Scottish reputation for determination, resilience and fun – with bare knees and ice. They became a national phenomenon in Canada in 2015 and already for 2019, seven Canadian cities and now New York City have set a time and place to gather.
Starling Childs will be leading the Piping Kilt Skate onto the ice - If you are a Piper who can skate at the same time join us on the ice at 3pm, the tunes will be:
Scotland the Brave
Rowan Tree
Blue Bells
