18 months to deliver a Commonwealth Games.


The normal cycle is six to seven years. Glasgow has a fraction of that. So how do you build a team, design the venues, recruit the people and deliver world-class sport — all before the clock runs out?


That is the question at the heart of Behind the Games – Delivering Glasgow 2026, a new podcast from Trivandi, Official Event Delivery Partner of the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games. Each episode, host Jen Reoch is joined by guests from Trivandi, Glasgow 2026 and beyond to go behind the scenes on a different aspect of delivering the Games.

  • The moment they knew something special was happening
  • What a delivery partnership means for the future of major events

If you work in events, sport, infrastructure or city development — this one is for you.
