NYC Tartan Week & Tartan Day Parade.The annual NYC Tartan Day Parade brings together thousands of people from the United States, and Scotland by providing meaningful connections through the celebration of Scottish heritage and culture. The Parade plays an integral role in marking National Tartan Day (Saturday April 5), a day declared by the U.S. Senate in 1998 to officially recognize the “outstanding achievements and contributions made by Scottish Americans to the United States”.
Now in its 26th year the NYC Tartan Day Parade, which is free to all those who participate and represents the highlight of a week long series of Scottish-themed festivities designated as “NYC Tartan Week,” includes over 3,000 bagpipers, Highland dancers, clan organizations, Scottish dog breeds, and more, proudly marching up Sixth Avenue amongst tens of thousands of spectators in person and online.
