Thousands from the sizeable Scottish diaspora in the Ballarat region are expected to attend the event in the Central Highlands of Victoria, just one hour out of Melbourne for this inaugural event.  Chief of the Day will be Simon Abney-Hastings, the 15^th Earl of Loudon, who recently attended the coronation of Charles III and officially presented the golden spurs to His Majesty the King during the ceremony.
