Team Scotland is delighted to announce that The Corinthian Club is set to become Team Scotland House, its home from home for athletes, family, friends and team supporters at the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games.

Team Scotland House has been a key part of Team Scotland’s Games-time experience since 1998 and, based at The Corinthian Club in the centre of Glasgow, just minutes’ walk from Central and Queen Street stations, it will once again be a hub for partners and supporters to celebrate Team Scotland’s sporting success.

The House will be a buzzing hive of activity, including:

• An exclusive environment for athletes, friends and family and wider Team Scotland partners to relax and celebrate pre and post-competition.
• The base for Team Scotland’s Celebrating Success programme with media and commercial partners.
• A welcoming environment for past Team Scotland athletes to join us for the Games.
• Flexible event spaces for Team Scotland sporting and commercial partners to welcome guests from across the Commonwealth.
• Public exhibition display and Team Scotland retail outlet.
• Workspace for Team Scotland operations.

Financial support has been provided by The Scottish Government and sportscotland to deliver Team Scotland House, which will also operate as a central hub for business engagement, facilitating networking events and business forums and promoting Scottish renewable energy, fintech, tourism and food and drink.

Jon Doig OBE, Chief Executive at Commonwealth Games Scotland, said: “Team Scotland House will provide our athletes, their families and friends, partners and supporters a place to come together, socialise and connect, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone to The Corinthian Club next summer.

“We’re grateful to the Scottish Government and sportscotland for their support, and to The Corinthian Club for providing such a fantastic venue in the heart of the city.

“With several Team Scotland athletes already confirmed and more to be announced soon, and with the confirmation of Team Scotland House as our city-centre hub for athletes and partners, momentum is building for Glasgow 2026 and Team Scotland.”

Health Secretary, Neil Gray, said: “Scotland is showing a real appetite for the Games with huge demand for tickets and the creation of Scotland House demonstrates our ambition, creativity, and commitment to build lasting partnerships.

“By bringing sport, culture and business under one roof we will ensure Glasgow 2026 delivers benefits that extend far beyond the Games.

“The Games are expected to bring more than £150 million of economic benefit, supporting local businesses and jobs.

“With many visitors expected it gives Glasgow another chance to shine and showcase the very best of what we have to offer.

“This is an exciting international event and the Scottish Government is committed to maximising its economic opportunities while delivering a lasting sporting, social and business legacy.”

Forbes Dunlop, Chief Executive, sportscotland, said: “Team Scotland House will provide a great opportunity to bring partners together from across the sporting sector to maximise the benefits of the Commonwealth Games being hosted in Scotland once again.

“We work closely with Commonwealth Games Scotland and the governing bodies of sport to ensure that they have the right support to enable Scotland’s athletes to shine on the world stage. Team Scotland House is a key part of that support providing a place for collaboration and celebration, and a home for the team behind the team.”

Graham Urquhart, Director of Sales at The Scotsman Group, said: “Everyone at The Corinthian Club is absolutely delighted to be announced as the official Team Scotland House for the Commonwealth Games.

“We are immensely proud to see the Games return to Glasgow – a city whose energy and spirit have always inspired us.

“Over the past two decades we’ve been fortunate to host a number of major events and sporting campaigns, and this honour feels like a wonderful continuation of that journey.

“With national pride at an all-time high, we look forward to working together to deliver an unforgettable experience for athletes, supporters and our community.”
