City Halls & Old Fruitmarket

About

In 1841, audiences first enjoyed performances in Glasgow’s City Halls. The traditional shoebox style auditorium is world renowned for its superb acoustics, with a year round programme of classical and contemporary music. Home to the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, the Scottish Music Centre and a Glasgow base for the Scottish Chamber Orchestra, the City Halls is one of Scotland’s most vibrant and welcoming music centres. The Old Fruitmarket is a gem tucked away next to the City Halls in Glasgow’s stylish Merchant City quarter. Beginning its life as Glasgow's wholesale fruit market, the venue was thoughtfully and imaginatively renovated to create a very special venue. With a number of its period features retained, including the lofty vaulted roof, balcony and cast iron columns, the venue offers a unique setting for a wide range of events.
