Edinburgh International Conference Centre Web: www.eicc.co.uk How to get there Edinburgh, a great renaissance centre, is the capital of Scotland. Known as the "modern Athens" of the North, its magnificent architecture shifts from the medieval Old Town, to the grace of the Georgian New Town, to the modern architecture of the new Scottish Parliament buildings. Above it all, in towering splendour, stands the Castle. World famous for its annual August festival, Edinburgh offers a variety of cultural and sporting activities all year and is the gateway to the Scottish highlands.
Edinburgh International Airport is served by regular flights from London and other UK airports as well as scheduled daily flights from other European airports. Glasgow International Airport has easy shuttle bus access to Edinburgh, and is served by a whole range of UK, European and transatlantic flights.
