The Scottish Exhibition + Conference Centre (SECC) is the perfect location for any event. It's superbly situated in Glasgow, Scotland's largest and most exciting city. The Centre provides a wide range of conference and exhibition facilities along with a 4 star hotel – all under one roof. The 3,000 seat, Clyde Auditorium is not only superbly equipped, purpose-built conference centre, it has become an icon of Glasgow and a symbol of the regeneration of the river Clyde.

Glasgow is a real conference city, with a friendly welcome for visitors. It is Scotland's cultural capital and one of the most dynamic cities in Europe: steeped in culture, rich in history, with elegant streets, squares, parks and gardens. What's more, it's one of the UK's finest Victorian cities with magnificent architecture everywhere you look.

Glasgow is home to Scottish Opera and Scottish Ballet. It has one of Europe's finest civic art collections in galleries such as the Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery and the Burrell Collection and entry into all 27 of the city's galleries is free.

Delegates will love Glasgow, the friendliness of the people, the quality of the shops, the numerous high quality restaurants, bars and clubs. Scotland has some of the world's most breathtaking scenery; much of it is on Glasgow's doorstep. And if you want to bring your clubs, some of the world’s finest golf courses are just a short drive away.
