Once a common feature, traditional bandstands are now increasingly scarce in the UK's parks. Kelvingrove's bandstand dates from 1924-5. Possibly designed by James Miller, or designed in-house by the City Parks Department the bandstand is unusual for its amphitheatre seating and its picturesque riverside setting. Although exceedingly popular for band concerts in the 1950s to outdoor gigs in the 1990's, the bandstand fell into disuse in recent years. Now recognised as a rare example of its type, the Kelvingrove Bandstand was listed as Category B in 2000 and is now the subject of an ambitious community-based scheme to restore and revitalise the facility as a venue for a wide range of open-air performances and events.

Amazing d(*_*)b Wouldn't surprise me if I dream about Kelvingrove's tonight...

[AbandonedScotland]

@qubenzispsyaudio Thanks, did you dream about it in the end? :)

I love this. I remember seeing bands there in the late 70s and early 80s (Clyde festivals and Rock against racism). It was a great place to be. Somehow even in all it's decay it is still a magical place and you have captured some of that magic in your film. Beautiful. Thank you.

[AbandonedScotland]

@keekabo Thanks for saying so, yeah it really does feel like a great place. Hopefully many more bands will take to the stage here in the future :)

Keep them coming

[AbandonedScotland]

@quillworts I definitely will, I hope you're enjoying them :)

That is a damn shame that place hasn't been maintained. What is wrong with the useless idiots at Glasgow Council?

[qubenzispsyaudio]

@AbandonedScotland Not that I can remember of. Though I had a bunch of almost lucid dreams since. Is there a connection? Perhaps :-)
