Scotland's premier sneaker and lifestyle event set to return to Glasgow

Sole Bloc Sneaker Festival, Scotland's main sneaker and lifestyle event, will be returning to Glasgow this August.

Sneaker enthusiasts will be welcomed back for the festival's third edition, set to take place in the city's SWG3 warehouse complex with even more lifestyle brands, street food, craft beer and graffiti events than ever before.

The event showcases some of the biggest private sellers and collectors from across the UK, who will set up stalls at the venue to sell and trade sneakers - many of which cannot be found in high street stores. As well as this, event-goers will be treated to DJ sets across the duration of the day, as well being able to feast on the finest street food the city has to offer, courtesy of Scotland’s favourite travelling street food collective The Big Feed.

Alan Lynn, founder of global sneaker care company SNEAKERS ER and SOLE BLOC organiser, said: “We can’t wait to welcome the people to Glasgow for what’s set to be the biggest and best event yet.

"We have so much amazing food, drink and music in store so there’s really something for everyone this year - not just sneaker fans.”

This year, the event will include a dedicated kids area, making it a great family day out. The SneakersER team will also be on hand, offering their cleaning services for anyone that needs a wee revamp on their shoes.

Sole Bloc Sneaker Festival and Street Party will begin from midday on August 27, with tickets available to buy here.
