The annual celebration of the Scottish civil engineering contracting sector will be held at 1815 on Thursday 26th March 2026 in the Grand Ballroom of The DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Glasgow Central.
In a slight change to proceedings this year, Craig Hill will host the whole event - from beginning to end. Craig made his Edinburgh Fringe comedy debut in 1999 and has been a regular performer at the Fringe ever since. He has made countless TV & radio appearances and takes his one man show around the UK as well as to USA, Canada & Australia.
We will, once again, be raising funds for CHAS on the evening.
· Tables at the function can seat up to a maximum of 12.
· Dress code for the dinner is cocktail dress for Ladies, formal/Highland for Gents.
The price of a ticket is £115.00 + VAT.
The hotel is yet to provide us with a booking link/code to access the reduced rate rooms. As soon as they do we will circulate it to all members.
Please contact Robyn Cooper Robyn@cecascotland.co.uk to book your table and explore the most convenient payment method for you. We can accept payment by bacs, by invoice or we can take payment by credit card.
In addition, when you contact Robyn, it will be helpful if you have the following information to hand;
