The Walk a very festive occasion and everyone, both participants and spectators, have a great time. We have bands, clans, dog groups, charities, local celebrities and politicians, and a variety of others who stroll along the parade route chatting with the spectators, passing out candy (or receiving it from the spectators), etc.

As might be expected, there is a lot of tartan in evidence. A lot of clans follow up with lunch or dinner, and the pubs do well as might be expected.

It tends to be a cold day but it has never stopped the turnout. I've heard we may have snow this Saturday.
