Highland Games return to Lime Rock Park with the Litchfield Hills Highland Games, Sunday September 29

Lakeville, CT – Lime Rock Park is proud to unveil its very own tartan, the Lime Rock Park Tartan, just in time for the Litchfield Hills Highland Games on September 29. This unique tartan, inspired by the rich history of Lime Rock Park and the heritage of Scottish racing legend Jim Clark, captures the spirit of both the racetrack and Scotland’s vibrant cultural traditions.

The tartan’s sett (the pattern of crisscrossing lines) is directly inspired by The Park’s primary brand colors red, white and black and can be adapted for various uses, from stylish clothing to curtains and even Christmas stockings. (Shop for the Lime Rock Park Tartin here)
