Travel tip
Glasgow’s festival calendar
is packed year-round. A few favourites amongst locals and tourists include the Glasgow Fair, the Highland Games,
the Edinburgh International Festival, Hebrides and the Edinburgh International Jazz & Blues Festival.
Centuries of Scottish history define Glasgow, even as the city gracefully remakes itself with an eye to the future. Once the industrial engine of Scotland with a proud working class heritage, Glasgow has transformed into a true 21st century city, powered by arts and culture. Museums, galleries and creative enclaves now make up Glasgow’s urban fabric, thriving in spaces once occupied by the city’s wharves and warehouses.
Glasgow has been voted the “friendliest city in the world” and Glaswegians are proud of their city, welcoming visitors to enjoy its many attractions. Distinctive architecture gives the city its unique ambience, while the city’s restaurant and entertainment scenes offer incredible experiences that can only happen here. Outside the city, breathtaking scenery awaits and the legendary city of Edinburgh is a mere hour away. Your Glasgow visit will mint lasting memories and whet the appetite for your return.
