Clans and Genealogy

Millions of North Americans are descended from Scottish ancestors. Learn how to trace your family's roots at the genealogy tent. Gain insight into Scottish heritage by visiting the clan information tents.

Clan tents make Festival visitors aware clans are an important part of Scottish history. The representatives staffing the tents are happy to discuss their clan's history and may show examples of clan tartans, photos of clan castles in Scotland, and perhaps other clan symbols and memorabilia.

The Clan Gathering takes place Friday Night at 7pm. It is free to the public.
