Women in Tourism Summer Social 2026

As the summer season gathers pace, we’re inviting women from across Scotland’s tourism and hospitality sector to come together for an evening of connection, conversation and community.

Join us on Thursday 18 June at Tigerlily, Edinburgh for the Women in Tourism Summer Social, a relaxed networking evening designed to bring people together before what promises to be another busy season across the industry.

Whether you work in attractions, hospitality, events, travel, marketing or destination management, this is an opportunity to step away from the day-to-day, reconnect with familiar faces, and meet new people working across the sector.

At Women in Tourism, we believe some of the most valuable conversations happen outside the boardroom. Over drinks and nibbles in the heart of Edinburgh, we’ll create space to share ideas, strengthen connections and celebrate the people who help make tourism in Scotland such a vibrant and welcoming industry.

Our Summer Social is all about building community in an informal, supportive environment. No panels. No presentations. Just great company, relaxed conversation, and a chance to welcome the season together.

Why attend?

  • Expand your network in a relaxed and welcoming setting
  • Connect with women working across Scotland’s tourism and hospitality industry
  • Catch up with peers before the busy summer season begins
  • Meet new contacts, collaborators and future supporters
  • Enjoy an evening of drinks, nibbles and conversation at one of Edinburgh’s most stylish venues
