Scotland's Year of Stories 2022 embodies the wealth of stories inspired by, written, or created in Scotland. As the year progresses, events will continually be added throughout 2022.

Book festivals, musical journeys, favourite cartoon characters and fresh takes on Scotland’s culture and heritage, will form part of a dazzling programme of events to celebrate Scotland’s Year of Stories 2022.

The programme was launched along with a new promotional video featuring the voice of Game of Thrones star James Cosmo.
