About National Tartan Day
National Tartan Day celebrates Scottish heritage and the distinct “tartan” pattern, which is commonly seen in clothing and many other items. When we see this tartan pattern, we think of Scotland, bagpipes, kilts, and other things “Scottish”. On this day in day in 1320, the Scottish Declaration of Independence was signed. You can see people in this attire playing the bagpipes at parades, funerals and many other celebrations.
Let’s Celebrate! You can do so, by watching or participating in a parade. New York City and many other cities hold Tartan Day parades. You can also listen to Scottish bagpipes. Perhaps the most fun of all is dressing in a Kilt. (Is it true what they don’t wear under there!?)
Here are some ideas on how to celebrate National Tartan Day:
Listen to Scottish bagpipes.
Dress in a traditional Scottish tartan kilt.
Learn how to play the bagpipes. Doesn’t that sound like fun!?
Attend a Tartan Day parade.
