It’s summer in Glasgow, with the schools still off and the second week of the Fair Fortnight underway.
It means the city’s a little quieter than usual, but that doesn’t mean that there’s not plenty on.
9. A quiz night with a difference
The weekly quiz night at Blackfriars is a little different from your usual trivia challnge - hosted by comedy trio Paddy Linton, Jack Traynor and Peter Bell. The focus is more on having a laugh that checking your general knowledge. There's a cash prize up for grabs, along with a booby prize and a meal for four. It's free to enter but booking is essential due to its popularity. Things get started at 8pm. | Contributed
10. Bard in the Botanics
Remarkably there are still tickets left for this evening's Bard in the Botanics production of 'Romeo & Juliet'. The much-loved Shakespeare play will be performed in the open air at Glasgow's lush Bontanic Gardens. Bring your own seat, a picnic, midge repellant, and pray the weather stays dry for the star-crossed lovers. Tickets are priced from £15. | Contributed
11. Enjoy a free organ recital in one of Glasgow's most beautiful buildings
One of Glasgow's best free museum, Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum is a wonderful place to visit. But if you make sure you are in the ornate main hall at 1pm today you'll be able to hear a free organ recital. Generally featuring light and fun material - expect to hear anything from Brahms to Bowie. | Canva/Getty Images
12. Experience a kinetic theatre
Located on Glasgow's Trongate, Sharmanka is one of the city's more unique attractions - shows put on using an extensive collection of kinetic (moving) sculptures assembled from found objects, beautiful scrap and exquisitely hand carved characters. You can catch three shows today, 'Journey' at 1.30pm and 3.30pm and 'Wheels of Life' at 5.15pm. Tickets start at £10.78 for children, rising to £17.25 for adults. | Contributed
