Glasgow – Secret West End Location

Capacity for each event is very limited but all attempts are made to make the shows as inclusive and welcoming as possible. Events are open to people of all ages, there are no guestlists and no costs either, meaning all ticket sales are passed directly to the artists. The venue location will be revealed to ticket holders 48 hours prior to the event. Elitism and snobbery discouraged, positive vibes thoroughly encouraged...
