On the 6th of April, we would normally be parading down 6th Avenue to commemorate National Tartan Day, however this year due to Easter Weekend landing on that same week, New York Tartan Week will be celebrating a week later. Why We Celebrate National Tartan Day We celebrate National Tartan Day on the 6th of April every year. Senate chose April 6th as National Tartan Day to recognize the contributions made by Scottish-Americans to the United States. If ever there was a perfect opportunity to dig out your tartan If you’re lacking fashion inspiration or wondering which tartan accessories would be best to wear for such an occasion, then you’re in luck as we are official stockists of the New York Tartan Day Parade Tartan merchandise, which includes everything from ties to t-shirts, brooches and more. Why not try making your own backdrop using a Tartan Rug, creating your own Scottish drawing or even using some Tartan Ribbon and some garden cane to create a ribbon curtain? Why not make yourself a tartan flag using your colourful Tartan Designs from last week?
