Outstanding Sporting Event

Scotland is the Perfect Stage for events. From large scale international events to national and local events, Scotland has a rich annual programme of sporting events which make an important contribution to our thriving communities and cities and the health and wellbeing of our people. 

If your events 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 enter.  

Who should enter?

Organisers of regional, national, or international sporting events that contribute to Scotland’s tourism offer, attracting out of region participants/spectators and showcasing our built facilities and natural environment are eligible to apply. Events must have taken place in Scotland within the time period from 1st May 2023 – 31st March 2024. For annual or recurring events, it is the most recent edition that is eligible.
