Glasgow to kick summer off in style
21 Apr 2008
The city of Glasgow has announced that it will be officially getting the summer underway this year with the Maydaze festival.
Held on 4 May, this event will bring a range of entertainment, exhibitions and shows to the Old Fruitmarket in Glasgow.
Heading the live music programme will be Dougie Maclean, a singer-songwriter who turned himself into something of a celebrity when he wrote Caledonia.
Also on the bill will be such eclectic acts as La Sonera Calaveras, a Cuban and Latin-inspired group, and traditional artists Arthur Johnstone and Gordeanna McCulloch.
The Maydaze festival will include a MaySpace area, hosted by Radio Clyde's Romeo, where visitors will be able to attend interactive dance and martial arts workshops or take part in African drumming sessions.
People interested in learning more about Glasgow's history can do so at a themed exhibition, while those with young children can enjoy art and crafts classes.
