Our History
Here’s a bit about what makes our festival site so special…
New for 2026, we’re heading to the stretching fields of Queen’s Park to celebrate the very best of Glasgow – from performing arts and local talent to delicious food and drink from the region’s thriving independent scene.
Spanning more than 60 acres, Queen’s Park is one of the city’s most loved green spaces. Deeply wound into the culture and community of Glasgow, it’s known for its open parkland, woodland paths, and abundance of natural scenery. Next to our festival site are formal gardens, wildlife, and elevated viewpoints – where you’ll catch panoramic views of the city skyline.
Queen’s Park is also home to several historical features and landmarks, such as the Scottish Poetry Flower Beds, built in 2003 to commemorate Glasgow’s hosting of the World Rose Convention, and beautifully kept Glasshouse Gardens.
Rich in creativity, culture and community, we’re proud to host the very first Queen’s Park Food Festival Glasgow in one of the city’s most vibrant parks.
We’re proud to confirm our 2026 partnership with The Skinny!
