About this Event

DOORS OPEN AT 12.30PM

PLEASE NOTE - The location is different from previous years and will be held at 40 George Square in Room LG.11.

Join us at our AGM to hear what we have been up to for the last year, vote on the election of council members, and network with like-minded individuals interested in Japan-Scotland cultural connections. Formal business includes a summary of our accomplishments in 2025, approval of our minutes from the previous AGM, approval of the annual report, an update on our online presense, and more.

After the close of formal business, this year our guest speakers will be Bruach, a Scottish folk-rock band that were recently invited to perform at the Osaka Expo 2025.

They will talk about their experience of being at the Expo and their introduction to traditional Gagaku music. So a lovely cultural exchange to kick off our 40th Anniversary year.

Sushi and refreshments will be served at the end. We expect this event to finish about 3-3:30pm.
