I didn't think the date was in question, but rather there actually being an organized celebration. It rather sounds as though displays and talks and such with no pageantry is not a celebration, any more than visiting a museum would be.

My clan celebrated their 1,000 year anniversary a few years ago. I wasn't aware of any event, gathering, speech, etc that was put on by the clan itself. But I was only a member of an American "society" and not privy to communication from the actual clan.
