Updated 16.1.17 1

Here is the latest list of what Clans are marching on what days for The Splash of Tartan.

There will be a series of Clan Parades that will take place each night of the Tattoo. This will be a major event within the Clan-themed events that will be happening throughout this year, backed by the Scottish Clan Event Fund.

There are 25 performances of the Edinburgh Tattoo. Tickets have been put aside for the clans to buy for each performance to make sure that as many tartan-clad clansmen, women and children attend as possible.  Each Clan has seats allocated at the Tattoo.

    Clan Kincaid Association International is planning to attend the Royal Military Tattoo in Edinburgh this year. On August 22 Clan Kincaid, along with Clan Maclaine, will walk the Royal Mile in this special event. Leading Clan Kincaid will be our esteemed Clan Chief, Madam Arabella Kincaid of Kincaid. Also, our Clan President, David Kincaid, will be coming from the USA. Many members of our clan will be attending from the UK, the USA and Canada. Having attended the Edinburgh Tattoo in 2014 we are looking forward to this stellar event in 2017.
    Aye Kincaid!

    Great to see, I’m looking forward to following all the Clans as well as the wonderful Edinburgh Tattoo from down under Australia. Was justvwondering, I dont see either Clan from Fletcher or Anderson? Or have I miss read the listing, would be grand to see my Clan represented, however, I do appreciate the logistics behind organizing such a big event. WELL DONE,

  4. It’s Splash of Tartan, not Taste of Tartan as above. BTW you now only have 2 weeks to get tickets from your clan for your parade! Tickets only held to 01 March.

        Hey my name is Glenn Harris Watson, it is said that the Watsons are connected with the Forbes @ the Buchanan’s is it possible to find how the Watsons are with the Forbes?,as you can probably tell I am an American with Scots/Irish decent . Don’t know a lot.Also don’t know what race of Watson I’m from. But I’m still curious,so if you know the history between clan Watson and clan Forbes it would be cool. Thanks Glenn Watson.

    I am curious as to which Clans will be participating in the Tatoo 2018. I am making plans to travel to Scotland to witness the 2018 Tatoo and would love to be able to watch my family clan. When is the lineup/schedule complete for Tatoo 2018. When this lineup/schedule is complete, I would be most pleased if you were able to email it to me. I thank you in advance, for your help.

    Respectfully,
    Patricia McDowall
