Celebrate Scotland's heritage
Historic Scotland's Heritage Awareness Day
Join the celebrations on Scotland’s first ever Heritage Awareness Day on Friday 6 October:
- it's taking place everywhere across Scotland
- everyone can take part
- you can celebrate it your way
Heritage Awareness Day is a great way for you to share and celebrate heritage and what it means to you. Get involved and shine a spotlight on the historic environment, history and heritage that surrounds us all.
This year, the day focuses on five themes:
- places
- people
- traditions
- languages
- experiences
Heritage Awareness Day is open to your own interpretation – after all, heritage can mean so many different things to different people.
Heritage can mean places, people, traditions, languages, experiences and more. There are lots of ways you can celebrate what these terms mean to you.
From organising a heritage-themed quiz night to fundraising for a charitable cause in your local community, Historic Scotland wants you to celebrate what heritage means in your own unique way.
