What's On - The Electric Gardens

Unfortunately I was feeling too under the weather to make it along to the preview of The Electric Gardens on Thursday night last week, but I have been sent some of the images that I thought I would share with you.

We've been to The Enchanted Forest in Pitlochry before and it was absolutely breathtaking. I'm guessing this is a similar type of light and sound event, but on a smaller scale. It's in the heart of Glasgow's West End; so it's very easy to get to.

The self-guided evening walk, which is part of the West End Festival, is open to the public from 23rd January until the 15th February, starting every half hour from 5.30pm until 8.30pm.

Ticket prices for the event are £10 for adults, £8 for children or £30 for a family ticket (for 4). Since going on sale in December tickets have been selling fast particularly for weekends, early booking is advised. It should also be noted that ticket sales for the same day stop online at 3pm. After 3pm, you can buy same-day tickets from Oran Mor (top of Byres Road) in the bar. Tickets can be bought online at westendfestival.co.uk or by calling 0333 666 3366. 

It goes without saying that you should dress for the weather - most of the event is outside. And I'd advise you go on public transport as parking will be difficult.
