Burns Homecoming
In 2009 you are invited to join the celebration of 250th anniversary of our national poet and international cultural icon Robert Burns whose message of friendship and Auld Lang Syne lives on.
2009 will be a celebration of not only Robert Burns but some of Scotland's great contributions to the world: Burns, Golf, Whisky, Enlightenment and Innovation, as well as our rich culture and heritage which lives on at home and through the many people of Scots origin who live beyond our shores.
The celebration will involve a programme of exciting and inspirational events and activities. So whether you are Scottish or simply love Scotland, come to the home of Burns, Golf, Whisky, Enlightenment and Innovation. And if you have Scottish roots, come to the home of your ancestors and experience our living culture.
