Following on from the international success of #L\u00e0AbairtNaG\u00e0idhlig or #sayagaelicphraseday, Scotland is hosting its first ever official country-wide Gaelic language week; Seachdain na G\u00e0idhlig<\/b>, or World Gaelic Week<\/b>: that aims to celebrate and promote the importance of Gaelic within Scotland\u2019s cultural and creative landscape.<\/span><\/p>\n

Launched at a special Gaelic takeover event at BASTA Pizza, Glasgow (re-named BLASTA [Tasty] for the night), on Wednesday 16th March by a whole host of Gaelic social media influencers, the week contains a mixture of organised interviews, performances and conversations, and local and international events.<\/p>\n

To ensure young people across Scotland can engage with Seachdain na G\u00e0idhlig, the team behind the festival have developed a comprehensive education pack for schools. In partnership with Twinkl<\/a>, Seachdain na G\u00e0idhlig have created a range of activities and resources that teachers can utilise to give pupils an experience of Gaelic. There are individual packs aimed at both primary and secondary levels, and for both Gaelic and English medium schools – no matter what level a pupil\u2019s Gaelic is at, there are plenty of opportunities to celebrate the inaugural Seachdain na G\u00e0idhlig.<\/p>\n

Events are confirmed to take place across the world, including in the UK, Germany, Australia, Canada and the US, all delivering a flavour of the breadth of Gaelic activity across the globe. They range from a Gaelic gin tasting, distillery tour and c\u00e8ilidh delivered by the Isle of Tiree Distillery, to virtual cookalongs with TikTok sensation the Hebridean Baker. Alzheimer Scotland West Highland will hold a series of online events for people living with dementia and memory loss throughout the week, with the Language Centre of the Technical University of Munich introducing participants to the Gaelic language, its history and its development during a special event.<\/p>\n

Comhairle nan Eilean Siar Instrumental Music Service & Multi-media Unit will also launch their highly anticipated e-C\u00e8ilidh book, featuring pre-recorded videos and live performances of some of the material contained in the book, performed by learners from schools in the Western Isles. The game \u201cLorg-Glaschu\u201d will bring you on a short trip through time through the medium of Gaelic, meeting at the Botanic Gardens, to play a scavenger hunt around the River Kelvin, learning more about the history and industrial archaeology of the place in the process!<\/p>\n

Alongside daily social media content, the mixture of in person and online events (Covid-19 restrictions dependent) will provide a platform for Gaelic speakers to connect with wider actual and virtual communities encouraging people, businesses and community groups to get involved.
\nFestival Director Joy Dunlop said: \u201cWe\u2019re absolutely thrilled by the response at such a busy time, people have been busy creating their own ideas and over 100 events to feature within the extensive programme; supported by free online resources, learning materials and advice on our official website<\/i> www.seachdainnagaidhlig.scot<\/i><\/a>, where visitors can also find links to tickets for all the events.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

People are also being encouraged to share videos of them using Gaelic online using the hashtag #SeachdainNaGaidhlig to connect across Scotland, and each weekday focusses on five key areas; Culture, Arts & Heritage, Business, Public Sector, Education and Communities.
\nShona NicIllinnein, Ceannard at B\u00f2rd na G\u00e0idhlig, who are Seachdain na G\u00e0idhlig\u2019s main funders, said \u201cWe are delighted to support this initiative which is bringing people together from business, education and communities across the world to use Gaelic. Seachdain na G\u00e0idhlig will increase connections throughout the Gaelic community in Scotland and abroad, raising the language\u2019s profile and increasing wellbeing while it contributes to the National Gaelic Language Plan\u2019s aim that more people use Gaelic more often and, in more situations.\u201d<\/i>
