Facilities, opportunities and challenges on the road to the 2026 Commonwealth Games

On 14 May 2026, the inspiring conference hosted by IAKS UK & Ireland will explore how Glasgow continues to build on its world-renowned sporting legacy. 

Glasgow has found the way to way to create world class venues for mega events, then turn them into community sports assets. Not only that but they’re repurposing them again for the next Commonwealth Games this summer.

How have they done this? What’s the magic formula? When many cities around the world have a build from scratch approach, how does Glasgow repeatedly get such great value from their venues? Attendees will explore how Glasgow continues to build on its well-deserved sporting profile, featuring local and internationally renowned thought leaders, expert talks, venue tours and networking opportunities.
