SCOTTISH STYLE AWARDS 2011 - GLASGOW, SCOTLAND
Sponsors - Glasgow: Scotland with style
PROUD PARTNER OF THE SCOTTISH STYLE AWARDS
Scott Taylor, Chief Executive of Glasgow City Marketing Bureau, said: "We are delighted to be supporting the Scottish Style Awards again this year, Glasgow is a real hub of creative talent and the Awards reinforce the city’s cutting-edge fashion and design credentials as well as kicking off Glasgow’s programme of winter events in style."
With its magnificent architecture, world-renowned museums and galleries, fabulous shopping and vibrant nightlife, the city has been the stunning setting for the Scottish Style Awards since their inception in 2005.
Glasgow’s year-round events programme is always superb, but seems to take on an extra special sparkle in autumn/winter when its performing arts scene is truly exceptional and Scottish Ballet, Scottish Opera and the National Theatre of Scotland, among many others, take to the stage.
An iconic addition to the city’s skyline was welcomed this summer with the arrival of The Riverside Museum. Designed by internationally-renowned architect Zaha Hadid, the Museum is located where the River Clyde meets the River Kelvin and is a fitting home for the city’s world-class transport collection.
Glasgow’s credentials as a UNESCO City of Music also continue to go from strength to strength. The city hosts an average of 130 music events every week and all genres are covered from contemporary and celtic to classical and country.
