Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre

The Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre is an enormous venue, spanning 64 acres on the banks of the River Clyde, and accessible via its own low-level train station. With over 22,000 square metres of usable space, it hosts concerts, exhibitions and conferences of all sizes. It also welcomes circuses, fun-fairs and a host of other one-off entertainment events. Its distinctive "armadillo" building (officially called the Clyde Auditorium) is an incredible feat of architecture and a credit to Glasgow. It seats 3,000, is fully-equipped and boasts impeccable acoustics. Alternatively, the SECC can cater for a capacity of up to 10,000 in another of its halls or a smaller affair of 600 in the more intimate Lomond suite. There are restaurants, a hotel, business centres, a bank and medical services available. There is almost nothing that cannot be done here - except have a look around the armadillo if you are not attending an event there.
