As darkness falls, the torches are lit and the stirring sound of bagpipes echo through the main street of Tanunda, as a massed group of pipe bands, highland dancers and strong men and women prepare to march from the corner of Jane Place, Tanunda up the main thoroughfare to where Murray St meets Basedow Road.
Now in its third year, this dramatic event is a celebration of winter warmth and talent in the heart of the Barossa.
This event is free and family-friendly.
