Kelvingrove Park bandstand.
Built by the Glasgow Corporation Parks department in 1924, the bandstand closed in 1999 and fell into disrepair, its condition was described as "critical" on the Scottish Buildings at Risk Register.
Following a £2.1m refurbishment, the bandstand was re-opened in August 2014 with a 2,500 capacity.
The building is the only original bandstand left in Glasgow and one of only three with associated amphitheatres in Scotland. |
