Paris-based events agency Préférence Events
organises all types of corporate events in Edinburgh, Scotland: seminars, incentive trips, general meetings and board meetings.
Edinburgh is Scotland’s imposing capital, with centuries of history behind it. Its sumptuous castle can be seen from either side of the capital. Boasting an exceptional architectural heritage, Edinburgh offers a spectacular backdrop. The historic heart of the city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers a stunning contrast between the medieval Old Town and the Georgian New Town, providing an exceptional urban landscape. A city of art and literature, Edinburgh has inspired many authors, including J.K Rowling for her Harry Potter saga and Arthur Conan Doyle for his adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
The city’s history and architecture are omnipresent, enlivened by a myriad of bars, avant-garde restaurants and boutiques.
Edinburgh has quite a personality to be discovered in its noisy, overcrowded pubs on long, drunken evenings in the company of beer-drinking poets.
The guests at your seminar, incentive trip or convention will appreciate the variety of activities on offer in Edinburgh, all with a Scottish soul.
The Scottish soul and the strong cultural identity of this nation strike every visitor and explain the strong change of scenery felt during a stay in Scotland. If you’re looking for an original destination with a strong character for your next seminar or incentive trip, Edinburgh is the place for you.
