The Future Needs a Home
Will You Help Build It?
Our purpose-built centre will be one ONLY advanced event training facilities in Scotland, offering studios, live streaming spaces, and practical training.
We’re currently working with Glasgow City Council to secure a permanent home for ProStage Academy, a 30,000sqft dedicated learning and production space in the heart of the city.
This space will be more than a training centre. It will be a base for Scotland’s future event talent. A space to learn, rehearse, test, build, and grow.
How it Works
With the right backing, we’ll be able to:
- Deliver year-round training and mentoring
- Offer accessible space for community and cultural events
- Provide a launchpad for Scotland’s next generation of technicians
We will also open this space to film, TV, and rehearsal space where our people will set the equipment up and put their skills to the test.
Join Us in Building the Future
Every step brings us closer to a dedicated home where young talent can turn passion into real-world opportunity.
Are you in the construction industry?
Do you have land available?
Do you help young people break into the world of work?
If so, we want to hear from you.
Together, we can build something that changes lives and strengthens Scotland’s events industry for generations to come.
At ProStage Academy, we believe Scotland’s future event professionals deserve a dedicated space to learn, grow, and launch their careers.
Here’s how we’re making it happen:
Identify and secure the right site in Glasgow or the surrounding areas like ClydeGate way. Accessible, adaptable, and ready to house a world-class technical training facility. Transport links for youth are key here.
Work with architects to design a purpose-built academy, complete detailed planning submissions, and conduct feasibility studies to ensure the vision is achievable, affordable, and future-proofed.
Secure public, private, and partnership funding to finance the construction, fit-out, and opening phases of the Academy, creating a facility that serves Scotland for generations to come.
Tender and award contracts to trusted builders, ground workers, electricians and fit-out specialists, and facility operators, ensuring quality, speed, and value throughout the construction process. Hopefully in partnership with Skills Development Scotland and the construction Colleges
Equip the new Academy with professional-grade sound, lighting, AV and staging equipment. Launch our first full-time training programmes, opening the doors to Scotland’s next generation of live event professionals.
