As part of Scottish Tourism Week, Cabinet Secretary for Culture, Tourism & External Affairs, Fiona Hyslop, announced today that 2022 will be the Year of Scotland’s Stories.

Scotland’s Stories will be a showcase of the country’s rich literature, film, oral traditions and myths and legends.

It will be the first themed year on literature, which our members have been asking for for a long time and we’re delighted that today’s announcement comes with good time to plan for a stand-out year.

Huge thanks to everyone who helped make this happen.
