Surgeons Quarter recently hosted a unique Scottish event for the European Orthodontics Society (EOS) as they held their most important social get together for the congress – the annual President’s Reception.
The event saw 2500 delegates from across Europe meet in Edinburgh for the society’s biggest event of the year. They were entertained with an evening of education, networking and socialising, all planned and coordinated by the events team at Surgeons Quarter.
A bespoke Scottish heritage party was put on for the EOS which saw its delegates enjoy live music, a ceilidh, a casino – which was serenaded by a string quartet - a disco and a variety of street food outlets.

“ We couldn’t have been happier with the event last Tuesday. The staff at Surgeons Quarter couldn’t have been more helpful or more accommodating. The room was beautiful and ideal for our needs. Staff very kindly also arranged access for our guest Gregor Fisher to visit the museum.
I will put all of this feedback into survey monkey now for you but wanted to say a huge personal thank you to you and the team for such great service and looking after us and our guests so well.”
