Scotland Festivals for 2009


I recently attended a Scotland seminar and am excited to tell you about “Homecoming Scotland” and “The Gathering in Scotland” which both take place in 2009!

 “Homecoming Scotland” will be a year long celebration of Scotland’s past, present and future. It started with the 250th anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns, one of Scotland favorite writers, and has been expanded to the theme “Scotland is the home of”.

 

Of course Scotland is the home of Robert Burns. It’s also the Home of Whisky with numerous distilleries throughout the country, the Home of Golf with courses almost everywhere including famous St. Andrews and Carnoustie and its the Home of Ancestry withmillions of Americans tracing their history back to Scottish roots.

“The Gathering” will be the summer of 2009 with hundreds of Clans in attendance. Those Scottish Americans that join them can try on the kilt of their clan or explore their clan castle and The New Register House Edinburgh would be a great place to begin that search.

Scotland is known worldwide for the Highland games, the International Festival and of course the Military Tattoo which takes place each August. So with the announcement of Homecoming Scotland you can count on all these wonderful events plus many additional festivals throughout 2009.

If you’d like to learn more about The Gathering and Homecoming Scotland, I hope you’ll keep an eye on this blog. If you’d like more information about a vacation or honeymoon in Scotland please call. I’m a certified SCOTSmaster and would love you help you experience the country.
