In the centre of Glasgow's entertainment heartland, the ABC occupies the distinctive Art Deco building that once housed Scotland's first cinema. Reborn in June 2005 with a £2 million refit, the ABC now incorporates two cutting-edge live music and club spaces with four bars and an overall capacity of 1600 - the biggest music venue to launch in Glasgow's city centre since The Apollo.
A starkly elegant and refreshing alternative to those much-loved venues The Barrowland and The Academy, the ABC challenges the notion of the live music venue as a bleak and inhospitable place; where poor surroundings and low standards are sold as underground and dissident. Instead, the ABC has been passionately and meticulously crafted to offer music lovers the finest experience.
"ABC is already one of Scotland's best music venues."
(Billy Sloan, Sunday Mail)
"Glasgow's not a city that's struggling for great clubs, but there's always room for another one as good as this."

"Coolest club in Glasgow....instrumental to the whole guitar club revival and now one of the hippest venues in town."
