Following the recent fire on Union Street, our thoughts are with everyone affected and with the emergency services who responded so quickly. Incidents like this remind us of the strength and resilience of the city and the people who make it special.

While there are temporary disruptions around the immediate area near Glasgow Central Station, the wider city centre continues to operate and Glasgow’s famous warm welcome is very much here.

Across the city, hotels, restaurants, attractions and cultural venues remain open and ready to receive visitors. From world-class museums and galleries to live music, shopping and outstanding food and drink, there is still so much to experience.

If you are planning a visit, please continue to support the local community by coming into the city, exploring its neighbourhoods and enjoying everything Glasgow has to offer.

Visitors are encouraged to check the latest travel information while temporary safety measures remain in place around Union Street.
