Last week, colleagues from our Event Industry Development team welcomed a delegation of event organisers to Scotland as part of Tourism Northern Ireland’s Delivering Sustainable Events learning journey.
There were representatives from organisations responsible for some of the biggest events in Northern Ireland and those that hold key roles in the delivery of events across the region. These representatives met with counterparts from across Scotland’s events industry. Over two days there was discussion on a range of sustainability impact areas, as well as share knowledge and best practice.
Among the Scottish industry representatives that the group met were Mark Currie, Operations Director for the Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland (Royal Highland Show) and Fiona Ellis, Business Manager for DF Concerts.
