Many of you will have seen Michael Douglas’ wonderful photography on our page over the years. Michael of West Coast Digital Photography has generously volunteered his time and talent as a photographer for the Victoria Highland Games & Celtic Festival since 2024.

Sadly, Michael recently lost his apartment in a fire. A GoFundMe has been set up to help him during this difficult time. If you’d like to support someone who has given so much of his time to capturing special moments at our Festival, you can find it here:
