Welcome to Scotland: The Perfect Stage for Events

EventScotland, the national events agency, was established in 2002 with the aim of strengthening and promoting Scotland’s events industry. EventScotland does this by attracting, generating and sustaining a portfolio of world class events in Scotland.

In 2009, EventScotland launched the new national events strategy which will lead Scotland’s events industry into and beyond 2020.

The national events strategy, Scotland: The Perfect Stage, outlines a clear mission and vision to further establish Scotland as a world leading event destination, to grow the industry and the expertise within it and to deliver events which provide impact and international profile for Scotland.

As the National Agency for sport, we are a non-departmental public body, responsible through ministers to the Scottish Parliament. We are also a National Lottery Fund distrabutor and we are governed by National Lottery distrabution rules. We invest Scottish Government and National Lottery resources to support people in Scotland to participate, develop and achieve in sport. We continually strive to ensure these resources are invested wisely so as to achieve best value and maximum impact.

triathlonscotland is the national governing body for triathlon, duathlon and multi-sport and is responsible for governing all matters in relation to these sports in Scotland. We provide a broad and comprehensive range of services to our 2500+ members, 43 clubs and 9000 participation base in Scotland.

Our services are delivered through a dedicated team of individuals, which include a well populated, voluntary Executive Board and a small but growing core of staff. The organisation is supported by a broad and enthusiastic base of volunteers, who manage the clubs and events which are the mainstay of the sport. As this relatively young sport evolves, so the organisation seeks to build a workforce of committed coaches and officials. Crucially, in a sport which only exists in its competitive format, triathlonscotland continues to produce home grown World Champions.
