Holyrood Events

For over 25 years, Holyrood magazine and its associated events have been the go-to platform for insight into the political and policy landscape in Scotland.

Our devolved policy events offer niche discussion and are complemented by larger scale public sector summits and conferences. We also host a number of drinks receptions, roundtables, party conference fringe events, and awards ceremonies throughout the year – including the award-winning annual Holyrood Garden Party and Political Awards.

Our combined media and event offerings provide unparalleled engagement, and gather Scottish politicians, public servants, and stakeholders to discuss the issues at the heart of Scotland’s policymaking.
