Security was ott! Taking umbrellas and binning them, deodorant binned, an unopened can of juice, binned. I could have kept them in my bag, no need to confiscate them! The drinks area with queue control was a shambles, we got to the serving counter to have rainwater collecting on the canopy above our heads dump us every 5 seconds! No lids for drinks so we had our beers etc diluted with heavy rainwater. I didn't use the portacabin toilets but there appeared plenty on the park. Plenty staff to help too. Plenty food outlets but nowhere to sit! I have chronic pain and if I'm going to eat, I prefer to have a rest and sit down, you can't do that here. I don't fancy sitting on mud. I'm unsure what the expect people to do...stand for 17 + hours while at events lasting a weekend..dint believe they thought of that one.

Glasgow Green is by far the oldest of the city's parks established in the 15th century. It is situated within walking distance of the city centre east of the Saltmarket. It's home to a variety of attractions, including: • The People's Palace, a museum dedicated to the history of Glasgow's working class • The Nelson Monument, a 130-foot (40-meter) column dedicated to Admiral Lord Nelson • The McLennan Arch, a 19th-century archway that is a popular spot for photo ops • The Templeton Carpet Factory, a former carpet factory that is now a popular event space • The St. Andrew's Suspension Bridge, a suspension bridge that connects Glasgow Green to the south side of the River Clyde Glasgow Green is also a popular spot for walking, fishing, and cycling.

Great for older and younger kids. Not many parks cater for the older ones. Loads of green space. A fantastic Freewheel North hiring out gocarts, bikes etc and so good with kids and adults of all abilities. Very reasonably priced. Massive play area for kids and a smaller but still significantly large area for the toddler age group. Loads of picnic benches to sit at. There is also a cafe there but we didn't use it. All day fun and you actually don't need to spend any money. Bring your own picnic. Toilets too which is always a must with kids. Recommend very highly.

Glasgow Green is the city's oldest public park and has been a popular destination for more than 300 years. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks, picnics, and the beautiful views of the River Clyde. In addition, it has many attractions such as the People's Palace and Winter Gardens, the Doulton Fountain, the McLellan Galleries, and the Nelson Monument. Sporting facilities are also available, and the park is home to the famous West of Scotland Cricket Club. You can enjoy a variety of activities, including jogging, football, and playing catch or frisbee.
