Glasgow Vinyl Fair to be held in Shawlands this weekend 'perfect for all'

If you like music as much as the next person but perhaps have more of an obsession than most thanks to the resurgence of vinyl, then Glasgow could be the place to be this weekend.

On April 8, this Saturday, a vinyl fair is set to be hosted in the southside. Located at Phillies of Shawlands, a trendy bar on Pollokshaws Road, the small monthly fair is running for another weekend with plenty on offer.

Promising a great vibe in a friendly bar with a great selection of food and drink, it's the place to be if you're in the area.

You'll also be glad to know that you can take your furry four legged friends along with you as it is dog-friendly.

Alan, who runs and organises the fair, sees three sellers every month come to the event telling Glasgow Live it's a "great mix for all types of vinyl crate diggers."

He added: "There is a mix of new and second hand and all genres are pretty much covered"

People can expect the following types and more:

  • Soul
  • Jazz
  • Hip hop
  • Disco
  • Dance
  • Electro
  • World
  • Reggae/sub
  • Indie
  • Rock
  • Pop
  • 60s
  • 70s
  • 80s
  • 90s

Alan also normally stays on and plays vinyl only from 5pm to 9pm with DJ then taking over until the early hours for more great music - suited to everyone's tastes.
