The Scots Magazine

The Scots Magazine is a monthly publication packed with entertaining and informative features.

Every issue is a celebration of Scotland’s rich urban and rural life – from the great outdoors to the vibrant city scene; all complemented by stunning photography.

Believed to be the oldest magazine still in publication, it was first published on February 9, 1739, as a 48-page pamphlet, priced sixpence monthly!

With a monthly average readership of more than 200,000, The Scots Magazine is now the world’s best-selling Scottish-interest publication.

It offers something for everyone: culture, history, the great outdoors and much more, celebrating Scotland's rich heritage and promoting its bright future.

For Scots at home and abroad – and all those who love Scotland – The Scots Magazine captures the essence of Scotland with an attractive blend of interesting and in-depth articles.

The Scots Magazine team are launching a series of masterclasses, live experiences and reader events to bring the magazine to life for their readers. Details of these events will be published in the magazine, on our website and social media channels, and on our Event Brite page.
