Whether you are interested in or already working in the young audience sector, come and join your peers & colleagues for the launch of the Young Audience Network Scotland (YANS) on 31 March 2026, 3pm – 7pm at Lyra / ArtSpace.

This new membership-based collective has been a few years in the making and will be dedicated to advancing the young audience sector in Scotland, with a strong emphasis on children’s rights, equity, access and wellbeing. The event will include a mixture of informative and practical sessions as well as plenty of time to network. You are welcome to join for all sessions or as much as you can make.

YANS can support travel and/or caring costs of up to £30 per person. You’ll receive details of how to claim this back after the event.

For those unable to attend, they are hoping to record the information sessions. There will also be another event at the Edinburgh International Children’s Festival at the Traverse Theatre at 5pm, Thu 4 June 2026.
