Join Professor Sir Peter Mathieson, Principal and Vice-Chancellor, and fellow University of Edinburgh, and fellow alumni, students and friends for the annual New York City Tartan Day Parade on Saturday 6 April, followed by an alumni reception at Bartley Dunne’s.

Meeting at 1:45pm at the parade starting point (between 44 W 45th St and 24 W 45th St), join your Edinburgh community for the parade and march up Sixth Avenue from 44th to 55th Street with the procession of pipers, dancers, bands and other Scottish universities.

An informal alumni reception will follow the parade from 3:30pm at nearby Bartley Dunne’s, where Professor Mathieson will share the latest news from Edinburgh. You will also have the chance to connect with the New York Alumni Club and other representatives from the University over drinks and a selection of tasty light bites.

Secure your place by registering via this page and let us know if you plan to march in the parade and/or join us for the post-parade reception. Friends and family welcome!

This will be a great chance to catch up with old friends, make new ones and celebrate Tartan Day with your University.
