The Garage, Glasgow

This nightclub has been in operation for 15 years and is considered one of the top nightlife destinations in the city. It has gained popularity among renowned bands and DJs who often perform here. The establishment, known as The Garage (formerly The Mayfair), holds the distinction of being the largest nightclub in Scotland. Its main hall was originally the first Locarno ballroom in the UK, although it has since undergone remodeling with the addition of an extension to the mezzanine level.

The Garage is comprised of multiple rooms, each dedicated to different music genres, all conveniently located under one roof. The largest room, the Main Hall, plays chart-toppers and remixes, while G2 focuses on RnB hits. The Desperados bar offers cheesy and nostalgic tunes, and The Attic features indie and rock music. Additionally, there is a shot and cocktail bar situated at the back of the Desperados bar.

However, it's important to note that not all rooms are open every night of the week. On Friday and Saturday nights, the entire club is open for patrons to enjoy, but on quieter weekdays, only one or two rooms are typically accessible unless there's a special event happening.

As for the club's unique features, the main entrance boasts a distinctive design with a tractor cab projecting over the venue's doors. The Garage is primarily recognized as a venue for emerging bands aiming to climb the music industry ladder, similar to the now-unavailable O2 ABC Glasgow. Moreover, The Garage offers various rooms that can be rented for public events, including the Band Room, Lounge, Balcony, Cocktail Bar, Attic, and G2. They have the capacity to accommodate over 300 people or provide smaller, exclusive spaces for private parties.
