Join the celebration
This year, live events are back. You'll be able to enjoy a varied programme of events and festivals, featuring music, dance, food, culture, and more.
In cities such as Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, and the town of St Andrews, special events are being staged, to which all are welcome. In both St Andrews, and Dundee, you can join the ‘Big Hoolie’ celebrations. A ‘hoolie’ is the Scots word for a wild party.
On November 26, the St Andrews Big Hoolie will take place. The event will feature a community market, street ceilidh (dance), torch-lit parade, and a fireworks display.
Dundee Hooley, staged in City Square, will feature fire performers and live music. The event fill finish with a torchlight procession led by a pipe band, followed by a ceilidh finale. If you work up a hunger or a thirst, you can warm up by tucking into some traditional stovies (meat and potatoes) or enjoy a wee dram of whisky from the food stalls.
In Perth, the St Andrew’s Day fun will include live music, an Indian-themed market, and a pipe band parade. See St Andrew's Day Weekend for the full programme of events.
