Smashing Pumpkins and Weezer Glasgow Hydro Stage Times: age restrictions, set times, tickets, likely setlist


A much loved alt-rock band’s latest tour will roll into Glasgow - and they’ve brought some famous friends along.
One of the most influential and critically-acclaimed bands of the 1990s, The Smashing Pumpkins have sold over 30 million records across the world.
Fronted by singer Billy Corgan, the band have gone through various itinerations, breakups and hiatuses, but are touring again with a string of arena dates across the UK and Ireland.
They’re playing a career-spanning setlist including songs from their multi-platinum albums Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, including generational anthems such as Tonight, Bullet With Butterfly Wings, Zero and 1979.
They’ve also brought chart-topping band Weezer along with them for the trip, so there will be no shortage of classic songs on offer.
And there’s good news for Scottish fans, with a date in Glasgow. Here’s everything you need to know.
