Welcome to the Royal National Mòd
The Royal National Mod is organised by An Comunn Gàidhealach (The Highland Association) which was founded in Oban in 1891 and has HM The Queen as its Patron. Famous for celebrating our Gaelic linguistic and cultural heritage, Scotland's premier Gaelic festival and provides opportunities for people of all ages to perform across a range of competitive disciplines including Gaelic music and song, highland dancing, instrumental, drama, sport and literature.
The support of organisations such as Caledonian MacBrayne, The Royal Bank of Scotland, The Royal Mail Group and BBC Scotland has helped to consolidate the status of the Royal National Mod as Scotland's main Gaelic cultural festival.
The international dimension to the Royal National Mod continues to grow with the support of EventScotland and VisitScotland while the leading Gaelic language promotion and development organizations in Scotland including Bòrd na Gàidhlig, Comunn na Gàidhlig, the Gaelic Books Council, Pròiseact nan Ealan , HIE and the Gaelic Media Service all offer considerable support.
