What to expect

Feel the beat of Glasgow’s authentic music scene with this entertaining, guided walking tour of the city centre.

Led by enthusiastic music performers, fans and writers, this whistle-stop tour around Glasgow's city centre will take you from the Royal Concert Hall to King Tut’s via the Conservatoire. It's an area teeming with music venues past and present where you'll hear tales from the heyday of the late, lamented Apollo, check out the home of Celtic Connections and marvel at the many successful bands that started out at King Tut’s.

Finishing at the famous venue, this tour includes the opportunity to follow in the early footsteps of Oasis, Blur and the Manic Street Preachers. Depending on access, you might have the chance to stand under the lights at King Tut’s and grab a selfie on the stage that helped launch so many great acts.

You'll explore a neighbourhood rich in both musical myths and scuzzy backroom stages where the next generation of guitar heroes are paying their dues. You're sure to see what makes Glasgow’s music scene tick.
