Scotiacon 2027: Massive in the Metropolis @scotiacon.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

This role will help to organise the team, as well as helping to resolve attendee queries onsite in Glasgow, while also serving as a point of escalation. Do you have customer service experience? Are you a natural problem solver? Can you keep calm under pressure? We'd like to hear from you!

Scotiacon 2027: Massive in the Metropolis @scotiacon.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Hi Folks! As Scotiacon continues to grow our team needs to keep pace to make sure we deliver a great experience to our attendees. One of the important ways in which we interact with attendees is through our Con Ops team and we're looking to recruit a new deputy to help keep things running smoothly.

The wellbeing of our community is always our priority and we hope you'll support us in this decision. Scotiacon is for everybody and we can't wait to welcome you all back to Glasgow in February for our biggest celebration of the furry community yet.

Scotiacon 2027: Massive in the Metropolis @scotiacon.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

As we said, how music is used matters, so we've taken the decision that, from now on, we will remove The Proclaimers from all our convention playlists and, while we are not vetting anybody's playlists, we are asking our DJs not to play any tracks from the band at Scotiacon as well.

1302

Scotiacon 2027: Massive in the Metropolis @scotiacon.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

One of the tracks we've enjoyed dancing to at Scotiacon over the past few years has been "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by The Proclaimers, so we were disappointed to see the recent comments made by the band about the transgender community and we've heard that disappointment reflected by many of you.

1274

Scotiacon 2027: Massive in the Metropolis @scotiacon.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Hi friends! We believe that music has the power to unite us and that the way it is used matters. This is never more true than in our community where we value inclusivity and enjoy going crazy on the dance floor. What we choose to listen and dance to says a lot about who we are, in so many ways.

Scotiacon 2027: Massive in the Metropolis @scotiacon.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

This is much quicker than we expected and we appreciate that some non-residential attendees may not be prepared for a payment request as early as this. If you cannot make the payment deadline on a non-residential registration but could make the payment later, here's what you need to do.
