Travelling with Visit Scotland to the IMEX American Convention Roddy helped share Scotland’s culture and tradition with the USA. IMEX is the largest conference for the MICE industry (meetings, incentives, conferences and events) representing 148 countries and 2,400 hosted buyers.

Visit Scotland travelled to Las Vegas to showcase Scotland’s tourism industry; it was a great opportunity to display Scotland’s potential to representatives from around the world.

Demonstrating Scotland’s cultural heritage Roddy led a Whisky Tasting session as well as stabbing and addressing a haggis in his unique style. Roddy drew crowds of international buyers to partake in the tasting of Scotland’s finest whiskies and wowed spectators with his classic recitation of Robert Burn’s ‘Address to a Haggis.’

Roddy also participated in a Hosted Buyer’s Party by playing the pipes alongside a saxophonist and electric percussionist at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas. Roddy piped traditional Scottish tunes accompanied by the glamorous saxophonist to welcome guests to the Party.
