Originally the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre and renamed the Scottish Events Campus in 2017, this conference centre in Glasgow was built in 1985 on the former docklands, and has been used for three Worldcons, to date: Intersection, Interaction, and Glasgow 2024.

Much criticised in 1995 for the lack of ceilings in the makeshift programme rooms built in the exhibition hall, the facilities had improved by 2005 with the addition of meeting rooms (Loch suite) and the Armadillo concert hall. The 2005 Worldcon bid also referred back to the problem, with its bid slogan, "Once More With Ceiling!" and used the image of the Armadillo in its Spaceport Glasgow visual theme.
