SWI’s Got Talent is a fun, feel-good variety showcase celebrating the amazing hidden talents of our members. It’s not a competition - just a chance to take the spotlight and share what you love, whether that’s singing, acting, magic, comedy, or something completely unexpected! From seasoned performers to first-timers, everyone is welcome to apply, cheer each other on, and enjoy an evening of creativity, laughter, and community spirit.

SWI's Got Talent will take place during the evening entertainment on Friday 11th September at the new Members' Gathering (formerly the National Conference) in the Apex Hotel, Dundee.
