The FIS Scottish Awards are a celebration of the exceptional work and diverse range of projects carried out in Scotland. On 18 September, the awards ceremony was held at the impressive voco Grand Central Glasgow. The event, which was hosted by former Scotland and Hibernian goalkeeper Alan Rough and Beverley Lyons, was well-attended, with guests eagerly anticipating the announcement of this year’s winners.

The ceremony began with a short speech from FIS Chief Executive Iain McIlwee followed by a welcome address from FIS President Ian Strangward who highlighted the organisation’s activities in 2026 and plans for the future.

After a fantastic three-course lunch, the presentation of the awards began. The winners were as follows:
