Network Meet-Ups
Catch up and share experiences with other people involved or interested in rural touring. Our team will be on hand to answer any questions. Our network meet-ups are FREE for members (Memberships starts from £20 per year). On occasion, they may be a more focused affair; a lab for up-skilling our members or a workshop on a particular theme. If you’re not a member yet and interested in coming along, get in touch.
Each month the Network Meet-Up will follow a rough agenda as follows.
Welcome and Member Catch up – This is your opportunity to share any relevant recent news or put out any calls outs to fellow members.
Member Lab – An Opportunity for you to reach out to the team for help finding something, someone or somewhere to assist your practice / work. We will signpost / connect / guide where we can!
Monthly Focus – We will guide a chat around a specific topic each month. Check our social media / webpage for what this month’s topic is!

Network Meet-Up: Scottish Opera
Mon 20 January, 12.30-3pm, Scottish Opera, Elmbank Crescent, Glasgow, FREE
We’re teaming up with new members Scottish Opera for January’s Network Meet-Up. If you’re in town for Celtic Connections and/or would like to join us for lunch and a catch up, please get in quick. There will be a slightly limited capacity for this one and it’s likely to be popular.
Scottish Opera are looking forward to welcoming us to their beautiful building and we’re excited to have a nosey around! The company will share a little about the Scotland-wide Opera Highlights tours and we’ll have the chance to sit in on rehearsals to get a flavour of the current show. Some of you are lucky enough to already have Scottish Opera booked next season and this is a great chance for everyone to connect with the lovely team, be inspired and perhaps hatch some plans.
As always there will be plenty opportunity to chat with other members and all of us at The Touring Network. Lunch will be provided! We’ll wrap up at 2.30pm and close at 3pm for those who’d like a bit longer to mingle.
As always, Access Fund is available to anyone who needs a hand. Grants are available to help with travel costs, caring responsibilities, loss of income or disability requirements. Email Fee directly on fee@thetouringnetwork.com to check eligibility.
