In 2023 our general activities focussed around our annual summer community events programme held at Queen’s Park Arena, Glasgow Southside. Ongoing community consultations have highlighted a lack of accessible community focussed events in Glasgow’s southside, a gap we have sought to fill through our professional neighbourhood summer events programme. The 2023 QPA summer events season saw 19.5 days of free-to-access/ donation based community events programming, consisting of: 24 early years activity sessions 60 hours of soft play 12 creative arts workshops 16 community talent showcases 12 fitness and dance classes 2 live sports screenings 3 community music events 40 open air cinema screenings 6 hours skate lessons All delivered free of charge and within Queen’s Park, removing both financial and transport barriers of participation in community events. The Queen’s Park Arena Summer Community Events Programme is designed to generate meaningful benefits for the Southside community by addressing social, cultural, educational, health, and economic needs. By providing accessible and inclusive events, the programme delivers both immediate and long-lasting positive impacts: Health and Wellbeing Free Fitness Classes: Local residents gain access to 16 professionally led fitness sessions, which cater to various age groups and fitness levels. These classes remove financial barriers to participation, allowing individuals from all socioeconomic backgrounds to engage in physical activity. Mental Health Benefits: Engaging in outdoor fitness and community events has been shown to improve mental health by reducing stress, boosting mood, and fostering a sense of accomplishment. Active Lifestyles: Encouraging outdoor activities supports healthier lifestyles and reduces sedentary habits, promoting overall physical health in the community. Social Cohesion Bringing People Together: Events are designed to create inclusive spaces where residents from diverse backgrounds can connect, reducing social isolation and fostering a sense of belonging. Building Networks: Interactive sessions such as fitness classes, early-years activities, and choir performances provide platforms for forming new friendships and support networks. Intergenerational and Cross-Cultural Integration: By offering activities that appeal to various age groups and cultures, the programme fosters unity and understanding among different sections of the community. Cultural Enrichment Access to the Arts: The programme delivers a variety of arts-focused events, such as creative arts workshops, open-stage opportunities, and the Glasgow Choir Festival, enabling local residents to experience and participate in creative activities. Celebrating Diversity: Events highlight the cultural richness of Glasgow’s Southside, with programming that reflects the area’s diverse heritage, from music and dance to storytelling and visual art. Breaking Barriers to Participation: By eliminating ticket costs and ensuring accessibility, the programme makes cultural experiences available to all, particularly those who may face financial or physical challenges. Educational Opportunities Early-Years Activities: Children aged 0–5 benefit from 16 dedicated sessions that foster early learning and development, equipping them with social and cognitive skills that support school readiness. Learning for All Ages: Workshops, performances, and fitness classes provide opportunities for individuals to develop new skills and interests, from music and movement to community-building techniques. Arts and Environmental Education: Events integrate themes of sustainability, cultural heritage, and creative expression, promoting awareness and understanding of important topics. Economic Impact Supporting Local Businesses: Increased footfall in Queen’s Park attracts patrons to nearby shops, cafes, and vendors, contributing to the local economy. Platform for Local Talent: The programme provides opportunities for local fitness instructors, artists, and performers, fostering professional growth and community pride. Boosting Tourism: The vibrant programming of Queen’s Park Arena serves as a draw for visitors from across Glasgow and beyond, further stimulating economic activity in the area. By focusing on these key areas, the programme ensures that local residents experience significant benefits that extend beyond the events themselves, creating a lasting positive impact on the Southside community. Inhouse Event Solutions CIC’s main stakeholders are the communities, organisations, and local residents for which we programme our summer events programme. Community involvement is at the heart of the Queen’s Park Arena Summer Community Events Programme. Our approach is built on consistent, meaningful engagement with local residents, organisations, and stakeholders to ensure that the programme reflects the needs, interests, and priorities of the people it serves. Community Consultations: Throughout the year, we conduct consultations with a wide range of groups and individuals across Glasgow’s Southside. These include open forums, focus groups, and discussions with key local organisations such as South East Integration Network, SoundLab, and Sunny Govan Community Radio. These sessions provide invaluable insights into the types of events and activities the community wishes to see and participate in. Feedback from these consultations has guided the programme’s development, particularly the focus on accessibility, diversity, and inclusivity. End-of-Season Surveys: At the conclusion of each summer season, we gather feedback through detailed surveys distributed to event attendees, volunteers, and partner organisations. These surveys evaluate: Participant satisfaction with the events. Suggestions for new activities or improvements. Perceived impact on the community, including social, cultural, and wellbeing benefits. Feedback from the 2024 programme revealed high levels of satisfaction, with respondents highlighting the inclusive nature of the events, the professionalism of the delivery, and the positive impact on community cohesion. Notable requests included an increase in early-years activities, more diverse cultural events, and the summer programme extending later in the summer holidays all of which will be incorporated into the 2025 programme. Collaboration with Community Councils: Local community councils, including Mount Florida, Crosshill & Govanhill, Langside and Shawlands & strathbungo, have played an active role in shaping the programme. With representatives of these community councils actively involved through QPA Ltd, this provides valuable input on local priorities and community dynamics, ensuring that the programme is aligned with residents’ needs. Community councils also act as conduits for promoting the events, encouraging local residents to attend, and identifying potential volunteers and partners. Engagement with Local Groups and Schools: We maintain partnerships with schools, youth groups, and cultural organisations to further expand community involvement. Schools in the area are invited to participate in arts and heritage events, and youth groups often contribute performers or volunteers for various activities. For example, many local choirs have expressed strong interest in participating in this year’s Open Stage Glasgow Choir Festival. Volunteer and Participant Feedback: Volunteers and participants are a vital part of the programme’s ecosystem, and their voices are prioritised. Regular feedback sessions are held during the event season, allowing volunteers to share their experiences and suggest improvements. This collaborative approach ensures that the programme is continually refined to better serve the community. By embedding the local community into every stage of the planning and delivery process, the Queen’s Park Arena Summer Community Events Programme remains a genuinely community-driven initiative, ensuring that it continues to grow in relevance, impact, and inclusivity year after year.
