'Shed Open Doors' Annual Event

Shed Open Doors 2026

The SMSA is delighted to announce that following a consultation with members, the national Shed Open Doors event will now take place during Men’s Health Week, from 15–21 June 2026 and in June each year going forward. This new timing reflects the clear preference of Sheds across the country for a summer event.

Holding Shed Open Doors during this dedicated week gives you greater flexibility to choose the day—or days—that work best for your Shed. With brighter weather, longer days, and increased public interest, it’s the perfect opportunity to welcome visitors, showcase your projects, run demonstrations, host barbecues, or simply share what your Shed is all about.

By registering your Shed, you’ll be part of a coordinated national effort to raise awareness, reach new members, and celebrate the vital role Sheds play in supporting men's health and wellbeing across Scotland.
