Jacobite Festival: 15-23 August 2026

Following the success of last year’s programme, we’re very excited to announce that we are working on the third annual Jacobite Festival, which will take place at multiple locations all over the country from 15th to 23rd August 2026. The purpose of the Festival is to highlight the huge range of sites, attractions and collections which help us to understand the events of the Jacobite period, from 1688 to 1746 (and beyond!). We are working with sites right across Scotland, to bring together a fantastic schedule of independently-managed events which will highlight this fascinating and significant period of our history.
