Meetings in Glasgow: Our top venue picks

If you’ve thought about hosting events or meetings in Glasgow, we’d like to share more about the city, plus our top venue picks.

Like many cities, at the centre of Glasgow is a river. From its source in Leadhills to the southeast, the Clyde flows down through the old mill towns of Lanarkshire, widening as it flows past the sites of the shipyards which put Glasgow on the map.

A sharp turn and the Clyde is on its final stretch past the quaintly pretty seaside towns of Largs, Dunoon, and Rothesay where Glaswegians go to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city.

The Clyde is a huge part of Glasgow’s history and the reason why it is such a popular city. Looking forward to the modern day, Glasgow has held many mega-events such as the 2014 Commonwealth Games, and COP26 in 2021.

These events brought masses of important people to Glasgow and increased its profile as an event destination. So, here are some of our favourite venues in Glasgow:
