Royal Highland Show
Another busy and diverse weekend for our Award-Winning Event Security Division.
50 of our friendly, professional SIA Licensed Security hosts spent 4 days at the world-famous Royal Highland Show within the Royal Highland Centre in Edinburgh, looking after a number of key areas that included the prestigious Members Pavilion, Ingliston House, Sponsors Hospitality Areas and the Light Horse area.
The event, the largest outdoor event in Scotland, saw ticket sales 15 per cent up on the year before. More than 220,000 visitors, including 21,311 children, made their way through the gates to the showground at Ingliston, Edinburgh. Some 2,500 competitors from across the UK made the event, bringing about 6,000 livestock to the show.
David Tennant, Head of Show for RHASS said: “This year we have seen the show return in all its glory, and it has been a true delight to see generations from across the agricultural community come together to celebrate their great achievements, learnings, stories and make new memories, just as it has been to see visitors and families enjoy all that the Show has to offer.
“I’d like to thank everyone for playing their part, from our members, exhibitors and competitors to our staff and members of the public, for helping to make the 2024 Royal Highland Show a truly unforgettable event!”
