Events

Thanks to the support of our Fellows, partners and sponsors, the Society runs an annual programme of public events, including lectures and conferences. 

Throughout the year, Fellows of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland are also invited to exclusive online and in-person events. They are one of the benefits of Fellowship and provide opportunities to network, meet other Fellows, and learn and discuss areas of shared interests related to Scotland’s past.

If you are not a Fellow and would like to support our work as a charity while enjoying the many benefits of Fellowship, find out how to join or subscribe to our public e-newsletter.


“I appreciate the networking opportunities with people from across Scotland and the world, from various professions and with diverse interests, all united by a love of history, heritage and archaeology” – Dr Abeer Eladany FSAScot
