Hide AdLiam Smillie will be taking a look at Glasgow’s past and how that fits in with its present and future. Declan McConville will look at Glasgow’s music scene and explore stories from local neighbourhoods while Callum McCormack will introduce you to top Glasgow attractions and hospitality venues that contribute to our local sense of identity. Kaitlin Wraight will bring you video interviews and profiles that show the story behind local businesses.
We will be out and about experiencing the community afresh and reporting back but we also need you to share your top local tips, recommendations and stories from your local community. If you #LoveYour neighbourhood, local pub, community group, street or favourite independent business then we want to know what and why.
You will be able to find recommendations, features and interesting aspects of the Best of Glasgow as we add stories here daily. There are already lots of articles to stir memories of Glasgow in the past that may remind you why you first fell in love with the city if you explore our archive here.
