Established in 2010, Glasgow’s Whisky Festival relocated with three months’ notice after its previous home unexpectedly went into administration. This year’s event sold out through word of mouth and more than 1,000 people descended on the national stadium to taste whiskies from around the world.
Julie Hamilton from Glasgow’s Whisky Festival, said: “Changing our existing venue with just three months’ notice was a challenge, but Hampden proved to be the perfect replacement.
“We have a loyal following of whisky lovers that we have built over the last six years – and with a thousand people through the doors on the day we’re pleased to report that everything went exactly to plan.
“The support from the Sodexo Prestige team was fantastic, with a first class effort on the behind the scenes organisation, which meant we were able to concentrate on all things whisky.”
As well as event management, Sodexo Prestige provided catering with a Scottish flavour, old favourites including haggis and stovies.
