You get the picture. There is loads on so get yourself down there!
Summer Nights 2-13 August
3. Bringing its musical repertoire back to Kelvingrove Park, the bandstand features a variety of fantastic crooners for Summer Nights. Texas and Arab strap are just a few of the artists that can be seen during the two-week stint in KG.

4. The Jurassic Kingdom at the Botanic Gardens. 26 August -10 September
Ok, we are just going to get it out the way. It’s going to be DINO-MITE, yup we went there. All puns aside, we seriously cannot wait for the dinosaurs to descend on the Botanics.
The animatronic monsters will be with us at the end of the month and look set to be a hit! There are more than 30 life sized dinos making their way to the park, and the event will feature in depth information on how the prehistoric creatures lived before extinction.
Watch out they roar!
5. Vinicombe Street Village Green 1-26 August
