Where Lorcan Byway would send you

  1. 1 The Barras Market Shop Oct 23
    The Barras Market
    ★★★★★ Lorcan Byway's pick

    Glasgow's legendary weekend market since the 1920s — vintage stalls, antiques, and the best concentration of street food in the east end. Go for the jerk chicken and the churros, stay for the chaos.

    Gallowgate, Glasgow G1 5DX, United Kingdom
  2. 2 Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA) Attraction Oct 23
    Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA)
    ★★★★ Lorcan Byway's pick

    Glasgow's main contemporary art space in a Neoclassical building. Duncan Campbell's 'A New No' runs until Jan 2027 — layered, restless, worth standing in front of for a while.

    Royal Exchange Square, Glasgow G1 3AH, United Kingdom
  3. 3 Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum Attraction Oct 23
    Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum
    ★★★★★ Lorcan Byway's pick

    One of Britain's great free museums, housed in a spectacular red sandstone building. Don't miss Dali's 'Christ of St John of the Cross' and the Scottish Colourists collection.

    Argyle Street, Glasgow G3 8AG, United Kingdom
  4. 4 Duncan Campbell: A New No Event Oct 23
    Duncan Campbell: A New No
    Oct 10 – Jan 4
    ★★★★ Lorcan Byway's pick

    Turner Prize winner's new commission at GoMA — the final show in their 30th anniversary programme. Refusal, gaps, things that don't fit.

    Royal Exchange Square, Glasgow G1 3AH, United Kingdom
  5. 5 Glasgow Print Studio Attraction Oct 23
    Glasgow Print Studio
    ★★★★ Lorcan Byway's pick

    The RSA 200 exhibition marking the Royal Scottish Academy's bicentenary runs until late November. Four Academicians' prints in one of Glasgow's best print workshops.

    23 Trongate, Glasgow G1 5EZ, United Kingdom
  6. 6 Platform Restaurant Oct 23
    Platform
    ★★★★ Lorcan Byway's pick

    Street food hall under the railway arches near Central Station. Rotating independent Scottish traders, late opening hours, good for a rainy evening when you want options.

    Argyle Street Arches, Glasgow G1 2PH, United Kingdom
  7. 7 Hunterian Art Gallery Attraction Oct 23
    Hunterian Art Gallery
    ★★★ Lorcan Byway's pick

    The University of Glasgow's gallery. Duncan Shanks' 'The Unseen Journey' opens 30 October — an intimate look at a landscape painter's creative process.

    82 Hillhead Street, Glasgow G12 8QQ, United Kingdom
