Irish Jig Scottish Dance competition during 2022 Lonach Gathering & Highland Games in Scotland

Competitors in the Irish Jig, a Scottish national dance, during the 2022 Lonach Highland Games at Bellabeg in Strathdon, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The Lonach Gathering was on Saturday 27th August 2022 and is one of Scotland’s most iconic traditional summer events, held on the forth Saturday in August each year. 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.
