About Stereo

Stereo is a grassroots music venue in City Centre, Glasgow with a standing capacity of approximately 300. Full backline is on stage including drum kit, guitar amp, bass amp, PA and vocal mics, plus an in-house sound engineer — so you can travel light.

Stereo books Indie, Funk, Rock, Acoustic, Electronic acts. Both original music and covers are welcome. This listing is part of the Glasgow venue directory.

Stereo has been at the heart of Glasgow since 2007 — a dedicated vegan bar and kitchen by day, an iconic live-music and club venue by night. Housed in a Charles Rennie Mackintosh-designed building (the former Daily Record printing works) on Renfield Lane in the City Centre, it hosts an endless variety of gigs and performances downstairs (and sometimes upstairs) through to the early hours. The bill is famously eclectic: indie, funk and rock alongside intimate acoustic shows and full-blown Balkanarama raves. A ~300-capacity room with full backline and in-house engineer makes it a staple of Glasgow's grassroots circuit. Open noon-midnight Sun-Thu and noon-3am Thu-Sat. Both originals and covers welcome.
