Upcoming Society Gatherings
We will be hosting our next Society Gathering & General Meeting virtually (using Zoom) in June 2022, but we are very excited to announce that our next in-person Society Gathering is going to take place in Edinburgh, Scotland from June 13 to 16, 2023. We are also working to plan an optional bus tour of Scotland with stops at MacKinnon ancestral locations from June 16 to 21, 2023. Stay tuned here for more information as plans come together.
Past Society Gatherings
We hold a Society Gathering every two years over a long weekend in usually June or July. Usually these get-togethers include a business meeting, what we refer to as a General Meeting. These typically in-person gatherings are always a wonderful time to come together and meet other MacKinnons from around the world. Events of the weekend can include general speakers, workshops, area tours, pub crawls, whisky tastings, Highland Games attendance (where we often host a Clan MacKinnon tent), a big culminating banquet, awards, and more. Everyone has a great time!
