Scottish World Tartan Register No. 2296
The Virginia Quadricentennial tartan has been designed to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the arrival of the first settlers to the New World
at Jamestown, Virginia in 1607.

The colours of the VIRGINIA Quadricentennial  tartan were chosen to reflect the colours of the American dogwood, the oldest symbol of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

The VIRGINIA Quadricentennial tartan, in all its forms, may be worn or used by any person associated with the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Designed for all Virginians to celebrate one of the most important events in US history.
