A spectacular calendar of events has been created for this wonderful celebration. Angus is hosting a number of events throughout the year, including our Tartan Day festival in April! Visit our Angus Homecoming Scotland section to find out more about the Angus celebrations.
In 2007 Phoenix Television broadcast three short films about Angus, highlighting the tourism assets of the county which promotes the area as the "first choice destination for Chinese travellers". These film clips featured Angus as a tourism destination. One film focused on Glamis Castle and another on what Angus can offer golfers in "Carnoustie Country".
