A display of the Irish Jig, a Scottish highland dance, from the 2021 Grampian Games in Braemar

A display of the Irish Jig, a Scottish national dance, from the 2021 Grampian Games, held in Braemar, Scotland. With almost all Highland Games in Scotland cancelled again in 2021, the Grampian Highland Games Association and Royal Scottish Highland Games Association came together for one special celebration of Highland Games, held at the home of the Braemar Gathering on 14th August 2021. The Irish Jig is one of the Scottish National Dances for competitions. The Scottish version is a parody of an Irish washerwoman in an agitated frame of mind, an energetic dance featuring lots of fist shaking and skirt flouncing among female competitors. It is a parody of Irish dancing and the infamous Irish temper. Males dancing the Jig act out the happy-go-lucky Irishman facing his wife’s tirade. It is one of the two Scottish National dances that has its own costume rather than the standard Highland or National outfits.
