Tartan Day Celebrated for a week in Waipu, Northland
Since 2005 and the beginnings of Winter@Waipu, Tartan Day has been celebrated in Waipu on 1 July. It has become so popular that we now have it for a week – the Saturday before Tartan Day to the Saturday after Tartan Day.
For this small scottish town, its the time to dust off the kilt, the scarves, the pipes – the town is awash with tartan – there is free shortbread in many shops for those sporting a bit of tartan, and often the Butcher offers a taste of Haggis. There is pipers, and parties, and busking and lots of fun – come and join us.¬†
