Seminar for Businesses 29th January 2025

You are invited to attend a Seminar focussed on businesses who may wish to develop opportunities arising from the cruise ships which visit the Forth and the Tay each year. The focus is on businesses who have an offer that may feature as a shore excursion.

In 2025 over 130 cruise ship visits will take place, involving around 200,000 passengers and crew. Not only will cruise ship passengers be on ‘day visits’, many will be beginning or ending their cruise on the Forth or the Tay, and will require pre/post cruise accommodation or other services. Some ships stay overnight.

Are you already a cruise friendly business, operating within 90 minutes of the ports of Leith, Newhaven, South Queensferry, Rosyth or Dundee (and even Greenock)? If you would like to know more about the opportunities, or believe you have something to offer, then this seminar is for you.

The event is organised by award winning CruiseForth, a project that is entering its second decade, and will be attended by cruise excursion representatives.

Please register you interest as soon as possible, and by 15th January at the latest. NUMBERS ARE RESTRICTED AND IN 2024 WE CLOSED BOOKINGS EARLY. We normally only allow one representative per organisation.

Register by contacting Peter Wilson, CruiseForth Project Manager, as soon as possible. To allow us to cover costs there will be an attendance fee of £45, which will be invoiced in advance. (No cancellation within 7 days of the event). For those attending, who choose to advertise or renew advertising on the CruiseForth Website and App, then £10 will be deducted from the annual fee (£80) on registration or renewal.
