Across its rooms it can welcome up to around 1,800 people a night — the Main Hall holds 700, G2 holds 350 and the Jack Daniel's Attic Bar takes 150 — and it stages over 200 gigs a year alongside its long-running club nights. With a full house PA and lighting rig, it's a key stop for touring rock, indie, alternative and metal acts as well as a launchpad for Glasgow's grassroots scene.
