At Fitwise, our team of Event Managers work on a number of association events throughout the year. Part of the role as Event Managers is to source venues for conferences and events, finding the most suitable location and spaces for associations to use each year. Recently this led to an exciting day for the Fitwise Events Team when they visited Glasgow.

Sourcing venues often requires site visits, to discover the space and facilities available. Last November, our events team were thrilled to be invited along to the Scottish Event Campus (SEC) in Glasgow by the excellent team there, to be shown around the venue and to find out more about the spaces on offer and the features the SEC has.

The team viewed Halls 1, 2, 4 and 5, and the Loch Suite. All the halls at the SEC are customisable to each event’s needs and for our client’s would primarily be used for exhibitions. The Loch Suite comprises the Lomond Auditorium which holds 624 delegates (theatre layout) and hosts 6 breakout rooms which hold a combined total of 1,170 delegates (theatre layout). The team then enjoyed dinner in the Clyde Built courtesy of SEC Food, otherwise known as quality assurance for your event!

The team at Glasgow even made the team feel extra special by branding the venue with the Fitwise logo and personalising with the team’s names. This is just a snippet of the branding opportunities available to both hosting and sponsoring organisations at an event at the SEC.

Showcasing just one of the exciting social elements of being in Glasgow for an event, the team got to hear Leona Lewis live at the end of their visit. We’re looking forward to bringing some exciting association events to Glasgow in 2024 and in the years to come. Keep an eye on our current events to find out more about what we have coming up this year!
