Scotland’s Tartan Army took over Boston last week for the national team’s first two games of the 2026 World Cup. Now, ahead of Scotland’s final fixture of the group stage, the Tartan Army are making their presence known at another destination: Miami, where the team will face Brazil on Wednesday.

The Marlins hosted Scotland’s supporters organization at their game against the Texas Rangers on Monday. It was part of a “Tartan Army ticket package” the Marlins posted Sunday.
Festivities for the game included a pregame march, a performance by Nick Morgan — who released “No Scotland, No Party” ahead of the 2024 Euro competition — and a first pitch from injured Scotland midfielder Billy Gilmour. However, one benefit for the Tartan Army came from being punctual. The first 250 members of the organization received a voucher for one free beer.
The Tartan Army showed up in bunches, with some even playing the bagpipes on the field before the game. They sang and chanted in the stands as starting pitcher Tyler Phillips took the mound. One member even caught a foul ball. Videos posted to social media showed the fans marching in Little Havana and playing bagpipes near the concession stands inside Loan Depot Park.

The attendance for the game was 20,008, the eighth highest for the club this season, according to ESPN Research. Miami lost 4-3.
Scotland’s supporters received similar love while in Boston as the Red Sox hosted “Scotland Day” on June 14. That night included at least 5,000 fans at Fenway Park with the “The Flower of Scotland” sung following the U.S. national anthem.
The fans made their presence felt outside of sporting events, too. The parent company of Sam Adams reported that its Boston Taproom ran out of Boston Lager following Scotland’s first weekend in Boston.
The national team played two games in Boston, a 1-0 win vs. Haiti and a 1-0 loss vs. Morocco. Scotland face Brazil in Miami on Wednesday with a spot in the knockout stages still on the line. However, one thing is certain — the Tartan Army will be ready for battle.
