Did you deliver an outstanding sporting event?
Despite being one of the most strongly impacted sectors by the COVID-19 pandemic, Scotland’s events and festivals sector has shown impressive resilience, innovation and has continued to deliver excellent experiences in line with ever-changing restrictions.
From large scale international events to national and local events, Scotland has a rich annual programme of sporting events. These events make an important contribution to our thriving communities and cities as well as the health and wellbeing of our people, supporting the message that Scotland is the Perfect Stage for events.
This category aims to celebrate and recognise outstanding sporting events delivered during the pandemic. If your event(s) bring attendees in from outside of the immediate area, from across Scotland or internationally, then you should consider your event part of Scotland’s tourism and events offering and eligible to apply.
Entries are sought from events that can demonstrate exceptional resilience, innovation and the delivery of excellent live, online or hybrid experiences, in spite of the challenges encountered over the past two years.
