ORGANISATION
Organised by: Glasgow Cathedral Festival
Glasgow Cathedral Festival brings music, art and education to the dramatic setting of Glasgow’s medieval cathedral. Our 2024 programme offers opportunities to revisit the familiar, delving deeper into hidden layers and messages through live music, film, art and multi-media collaborations. As our artists fill this ancient building with changing light, distorted time, and ephemeral sound, we invite you to look beyond face value, awaken your senses and expand your imagination. GCF2024: reconsider, rediscover, reimagine
