Glass festivals bring artists and collectors together, enhancing the sense of community in the functional glass world. Everyone please welcome the new kid on the festival block, the Highland Flames. Hailing out of Scotland, this gathering attracts people from all over the world and especially Europe. Writer Joe Samuelson III had such a great time there in 2024 that he had to write about it. Read about this celebration of glass, then book your own trip to visit them in October 2025.
