Glasgow Weekend Breaks

The spectacular switch-on of Glasgow's Christmas lights in mid-November means the start of the Christmas season, for the best of shopping, entertainment and exhibitions, and the beginning of the city's march towards the big day in inimitable Glasgow fashion.

Pre Christmas, the streets of Glasgow are paved with opportunities to get that perfect Christmas gift and enjoy yourself into the bargain!

All the way up to December 25, there’s a feast of festive entertainment in Glasgow, including Glasgow on Ice in George Square (November 25 – December 24), classical performances by both the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra, and Scottish Ballet’s critically acclaimed adaptation of ‘Cinderella’.

Experience the thrill and magic of this wonderful city at Christmas with its twinkling lights, carol signing, numerous Christmas trees and the strains of festive music in the street. Shop windows filled with imaginative presents for all.

Glasgow's Hogmanay Street Party


George Square, 8.30pm-1.30am.

The famous rivalry between Scotland's two biggest cities continues where Hogmanay is concerned too. Scotland's largest city has the second biggest Hogmanay celebration in Scotland (after Edinburgh) with tens of thousands of revellers taking to the streets and Glasgow's jumping club scene.

The main venue in Glasgow on Hogmanay night is George Square with some classic local acts taking to the stage in the run up to the New Year.

So revel in the superb Glasgow Hogmanay celebrations - confident in the knowledge that you have a choice of great value accommodation to retire to as well, after a long night!

Most Glasgow hotels offer special New Year breaks and packages, usually from 30 December to 3 January.

Featured festive breaks in Glasgow include superb Christmas breaks at Glasgow Pond Hotel – visit www.glasgowpondhotel.com for details.
