More about Glasgow’s Summer Nights At The Bandstand

The Glasgow Building Preservation Society restored the 90-year-old bandstand at Kelvingrove Park in Glasgow, Scotland, and thus began Summer Nights at the Bandstand. The venue originally opened in time to serve as a side venue for the 2014 Commonwealth Games in the city.

This was followed by the first-ever Summer Nights, organized by the Magners Brewing Company, famous for its Irish cider. The first edition of the festival features performances by The Waterboys, Alison Moyet, Squeeze, and Capercaillie, among others.

The festival has since grown to encompass an annual patronage of more than 2500 people and performances by artists such as Suzanne Vega, Sugababes and more. It is currently organized by the Scottish music promoter Regular Music, which is currently owned by DEAG Entertainment.
