if you were to travel to the majority of the commemorations held in Scotland each year, you would see this banner being displayed.

Are these private commemorations held by members of Siol nan Gaidheal? I certainly can't recall hearing anything about any of these commemorations at the time. I've lived in Scotland all my life and until I read this thread I had never heard of Siol nan Gaidheal.

The Robert MacGregor commemoration is usually organized by Na Fir Dileas.

The Battle of Bannockburn commemoration is a large event, well attended by many groups, usually with a large SNP turn-out as well.

The pictures from London and Lanark were segments of the Walk for Wallace events, with turn-outs in the thousands at both locations.
