2005
Celtic Classic became the official festival to host the U.S. National Highland Athletic Championships. An Irish singing contest was introduced, and packed the Bairnyard Stage to capacity. Celtic Quest: A Passport to the Seven Nations made its debut. A hugely successful educational program, the Celtic Quest took children and the young at heart, through the Celtic Classic in search of the seven Celtic Nation Stations to get their passports stamped and to learn more about the seven Celtic Nations. The Celtic Quest has been expanded in 2007 to include demonstrations, craft projects and displays that will be set up to entertain and educate.
