IOG Shows and Events
We organise a wide range of local and national events throughout the year, many of which are open to all, but members benefit from generous discounts, receive advanced notice and are given priority at popular events.
Our exhibitions, IOG SALTEX and IOG Scotsturf, are the highlight of the groundscare events calendar, attracting exhibitors and buyers from around the world and ensuring our industry continues to thrive and evolve.
IOG Saltex is held annually at Windsor Racecourse in September and IOG Scotsturf at the Royal Highland Hall Edinburgh in November.
Both IOG Saltex & IOG Scotsturf welcome visitors from across the world, entry is free of charge for both shows and is even easier if you have pre-registered your intended visit. Pre-register for IOG Saltex here. IOG Scotsturf pre-registration will open shortly.
New in 2009, we hosted the first IOG Industry Awards night at the Emirates Stadium London, which celebrated the very best in grounds maintenance and management. The awards recognise everyone involved in the industry, from those working at grass roots through to national stadia. In 2010 the IOG Industry Awards and Sports Turf Conference was held at Glamorgan Cricket Club in Wales and the 2011 IOG Industry Awards and Sports Turf Conference will be held at the Reebok Stadium home to Bolton FC on the 1st of December.
We also run an extensive programme of IOG in Action days. These one day seminars, which have been successfully run for 10 years, uniquely combine educational presentations with outdoor workshops and study tours. Always held at a venue of interest, these events are often over-subscribed so early booking is advised.
