Re-opening of Kelvingrove Bandstand & Amphitheatre

The re-opening of the unique bandstand and amphitheatre of Kelvingrove Park took place on Thursday 29th May.  

This significant Glasgow landmark has a very special place in my heart. Having been involved in the campaign to save the bandstand established in 1992 and subsequently, involved in the Friends of Kelvingrove Park, I will cherish the re-opening event.

This re-opening is possible thanks to the generous support of the bandstand and amphitheatre restoration by various funders including the Heritage Lottery and Glasgow City Council. 

It has also been possible due to the dedication of staff from Glasgow Building Preservation Trust, Glasgow Life, Land and Environmental Services and the contractors.  

I am really looking forward to many more memorable concerts and community events at this amazing outdoor venue.
