Shipyard Bards, Tall Tales and Dinner: 5 evening events in January & February in conjunction with Mharsanta Restaurant & Bar
Looking for a memorable Christmas gift?
Since our 2023 season of scheduled Saturday tours ended we’ve been busy with plans for our upcoming events in January. Due to popular demand we’re re-running our hugely successful Shipyard Bards, Tall Tales and Dinner event in conjunction with our partners, Mharsanta Restaurant & Bar. If you’re looking for a memorable Christmas gift this event makes for a splendid evening out, especially for those connected to the shipyards, or music enthusiasts keen to delve into Glasgow’s rich history.
Dive deep into the riveting tales of the Clyde’s shipbuilding heritage. Over five evenings in 2024 this event promises a blend of storytelling, traditional songs and a mouth-watering Scottish menu with a wee dram.
The show starts at 5pm and the meal from 6.15pm. These events are designed to finish by 7.30pm-7.45pm to allow guests to get to any Celtic Connections concerts they may have planned. BOOK HERE

Several indoor stops are included in the tour, offering the opportunity to warm your hands with a coffee or something a little stronger.
