Scottish Clans
My heart lies in the land of my ancestors
A Scottish clan—derived from the Gaelic clann, meaning “family” or “progeny”—is far more than a name. It represents generations of shared history, pride, and identity passed down through the Scottish people. Today, clans are officially recognised by the Court of the Lord Lyon, the authority over Scottish heraldry and coats of arms. Each clan carries its own distinctive tartan, many dating back to the 19th century, proudly worn in kilts and other traditional attire.
Step into your past and discover where you belong at our gathering of over 60 Clan Booths. Experience the pageantry of the Clan Parade, enjoy engaging Clan Presentations, and meet the people who keep these traditions alive. Every booth is staffed by knowledgeable clan members eager to share their stories, answer your questions, and welcome you like family.
Whether you’re hoping to trace your ancestry, learn more about a specific clan, explore membership opportunities, or simply soak in the rich culture of Scotland, our Clan Booths are your gateway to a living heritage.
Come connect with your roots—and let your clan story begin.
Clan booths can help you trace your heritage, give you information on the clan as well as membership information, and much more!
