Sauchiehall Street is legendary for its nightlife. From intimate gigs to dance floors that keep the city moving until dawn, the District remains one of the UK’s most exciting places to experience live entertainment and nightlife culture.

With live music venues, buzzing bars, and iconic clubs, it has been the backdrop to countless Glasgow nights out.

Bars

  • The long curved bars of The State Bar and The Griffin create a warm local welcome.

  • Watch the Variety Bar transform at nighttime with its vibrant neon signs and cocktails.

  • DJ’s and drinks from ethical suppliers at the Third Eye Bar support the creative programme of the CCA.

Entertainment
