Iconic may be a word that is overused from time to time, but talking about the Kelvingrove Bandstand, and it feels quite appropriate. Located in Kelvingrove Park, it’s where we all like to gather on long lazy summer days in the city. Keep an eye out for performing acts including bands and choirs who perform there daily.

The list of events lined up at SWG3 is long and eclectic for this year. Visit the website link above and get planning your nights out in Glasgow.
