About ABC Glasgow

ABC Glasgow stands as a storied part of Glasgow’s live music scene. Housed in a historic Art Deco building at 300 Sauchiehall Street, the venue features two main spaces — ABC1 and ABC2 — each with its own character. ABC1 accommodates around 1,300 standing guests, while ABC2 hosts approximately 350, giving a combined capacity near 1,600. The complex has hosted a range of unforgettable performances by artists like Paolo Nutini, Arctic Monkeys, Adele, Ed Sheeran, Sum 41, Ellie Goulding, and Lily Allen, along with club nights such as Jellybaby and Propaganda. While the fire in 2018 led to rebuilding efforts, the site remains a landmark with redevelopment plans progressing as of 2025. This page provides practical guidance to help you plan a visit, including seating expectations, parking, transit options, and nearby hotels and restaurants.

Note: ABC Glasgow currently operates as a venue with two distinct spaces and no publicly published detailed seating chart. Most events are standing, with bars and viewing areas around the rooms.
