Brigadoon Scotland | remote 2026
november 9-13
What is the vibe of Brigadoon Scotland?
It's just past nine on a Tuesday morning in Scotland, and you're sitting in a wingback chair by a window that looks out onto a field that hasn't changed in three hundred years.
Your coffee is still hot.
You have no meetings. You've been awake for an hour, reading something you've meant to read for six months, interrupted only by the sound of rain against old glass and someone two rooms over laughing at something you didn't catch.
Last night, dinner ran until midnight — not because anyone planned it that way, but because no one could find a stopping point in the conversation.
You were sitting next to a pollster from London and a former investigative journalist from Barcelona, and somewhere between a locally distilled whisky and a debate about what cities will look like in thirty years, you had an idea you've been trying to have for two years.
You wrote it on the back of a napkin.
It's still in your jacket pocket.
You're going to write it up properly today.
You have time.
What is this Brigadoon?
The legend of Brigadoon is the story of a mythical village in the Scottish Highlands. The town became enchanted centuries ago, remaining unchanged and invisible to the outside world, except for one special day every hundred years, when it could be seen and even visited by outsiders.
Brigadoon embraces this mythology as a place that is idyllic, unaffected by time, and remote from reality, much like our philosophy of connecting founders and thought leaders who shape commerce and culture in settings and venues that inspire and drive creativity. Born of the frustration of spending too much time with the same people, feeling the same way, Brigadoon embraces a simple yet powerful idea: connecting visionaries who believe in meaningful conversations and boundless curiosity.
Since 2013, Brigadoon has organized PowerPoint-free discussions, family-style salon dinners, and multi-day excursions that foster deeper knowledge and forge lasting connections.
About the November 2026
Join us for our third remote gathering of curious decision-makers and thought leaders in Scotland.
Imagine four transformative days spent working remotely from a Scottish estate, structuring your time exactly as inspiration strikes. Write your book by the fireplace. Strategize your next venture in the sunroom. Think deeply during countryside walks. Read undisturbed in hidden corners. Engage in whiteboard sessions with fellow attendees to develop breakthrough ideas. Simply disconnect and recharge.
Each evening culminates in chef-prepared dinners with fellow participants, where conversations naturally drift from global affairs and cultural movements to business innovation and entrepreneurial insights.
Why Brigadoon Scotland?
Intimate scale, maximum impact: Limited to just 10 rooms, ensuring genuine connections rather than superficial networking. You're a welcome guest, not another conference attendee.
PowerPoint-free philosophy: Governed by Brigadoon House Rules that prioritize authentic conversation over slide deck presentations.
No corporate nonsense: Zero lanyards, apps, or badges. By the gathering's end, you'll know fellow participants as friends whose subject matter expertise spans finance, government, media, architecture, medicine, urban development, writing, design, sport, retail, and hospitality.
Commerce meets culture: Engage in discussions that matter, exploring topics that shape our interconnected world in an atmosphere of relaxed sophistication and warm hospitality.
Transformational, not transactional: Regardless of your background, you'll encounter perspectives that challenge assumptions and inspire fresh approaches to work, life, and purpose.
Global Street Smarts: Connect with fellow adventurers and advocates who understand that wisdom comes from diverse experiences and cross-cultural insights.
