Glasgow - Scotland

Glasgow information

Take a winter city break in Glasgow and you'll soon see why it enjoys a reputation as Scotland's style capital.

The architecturally striking city centre sparkles in winter. Areas such as Buchanan Street and the Merchant City have attracted top designer names. Glasgow is now the UK's favourite shopping city outside London - and with stores like Ralph Lauren, Armani, and Boss on every corner, it's no wonder. From Christmas shopping to bargain hunting, you can do it all here. Over the festive period Glasgow's Winterfest adds some sparkle to the city centre, adding to the Christmas magic, and featuring a Hogmanay concert to see in 2009 in style.

For those keen on the theatre, Glasgow is an exciting place to visit and is bursting at the seams with talent. With Scottish Ballet and Scottish Opera both based in the city, there's a first class performance to catch every night.

Explore Glasgow city and you'll find the locals are as friendly as they are well dressed. So after a busy day shopping, show off your new togs and check out Glasgow's vibrant club scene. The city has produced some of the biggest names on the music circuit today.
