This weekend marks the return of Tartan Day.
On Saturday, people across Scotland and beyond will be taking part in the annual celebration. Falling on April 6 every year, Tartan Day is all about Scottish heritage and the cultural contributions of Scottish people throughout history.
If you have never heard of Tartan Day, don't be too hard on yourself. Despite being entirely dedicated to Scotland, its origins actually lie outside of the country.
First celebrated in Canada in 1987, nowadays countries all over the world take part in Tartan Day celebrations. Australia, the United States, and of course Scotland itself are among the places where the holiday is the most widely observed.
