The Kelvingrove Bandstand is a charming venue for all kinds of live, outdoor entertainment. Since its restoration and reopening, the venue has hosted festival programmes for many of the large sporting events in the city, concerts by Sir Tom Jones, Van Morrison and Texas, the Glasgow Mela and cinema screenings.

It has grown to become an in-demand venue that is especially sought after in the summer months. Its flexibility and size means it is an ideal home for almost any kind of performance.

The Bandstand sits between Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum and The University of Glasgow. It can hold over 2,000 people. After a 36 year hiatus, it is one of the most atmospheric and magical spaces Glasgow has to offer.
