What you need to know

The International Events Programme is at the very core of our EventScotland business. Through this programme of investment, our EventScotland team fund major, world-class events which are raising the profile of Scotland’s Perfect Stage around the world.

We support events though this programme in a number of ways: working in partnership with local authorities and governing bodies on bids to secure major international properties for Scotland; communicating directly with event organisers for annual events where we have an established relationship, and; actively looking for new and existing events to bring to Scotland for the first time.

If you would like to discuss any opportunities further, please contact us directly.
