Glasgow has a wide and varied programme of festivals each year, including music,
comedy, arts, and dance.
Glasgow is home each year to the famous Celtic Connections
festival of traditional Scottish music, the New Territories art
and dance festival, and Glasgay, a celebration of queer culture.
The Glasgow Film Festival presents an intriguing selection of films
both local and international. And the Glasgow Comedy Festival is
sure to tickle your funny bone.
In recent years Glasgow has started attracting thousands of entrants to an annual series of running events - all the way from 5k events up to full marathons.
Glasgow has its fair share of street parades and carnivals, including the West End Festival, and the ever-popular Hogmanay Party in George Square in the City Centre every New Year's Eve.
And if you're looking for something with a little culture, why not try the Aye Write book festival, the Bard in the Botanics, or Glasgow's Doors Open Day festival. Music lovers won't want to miss the well-respected Glasgow International Jazz Festival, or the World Pipe Band Championship.
The Sandyford Hotel Glasgow can provide more information about which of Glasgow's festivals are running during your stay.
