After the buzz of Christmas and New Year, January can be a bit of a quiet month with people taking things easy after the festive season.
Your bank balance also might look a bit different after the festivities so we've put together a list of events that are absolutely free to attend in Glasgow so there is no excuse to just be stuck in the house. You will have the option to spend money if you wish while others are absolutely free.
