After 19 years, due to popular demand, Glasgow Doors Open Days has become a festival - so for the first time we have a whole week of interesting things to do, see and hear.
Doors Open Day, Glasgow's Built Heritage Festival offers the most extensive and concentrated programme of tours and other events of any of Glasgow's cultural festivals. Our guides and speakers are among the most knowledgeable, informative and entertaining in the city and will provide insights not easily found in any history book.
One of the key themes we are highlighting as part of the festival is traditional building skills and materials.
In this section you can discover all the events, walks, tours and activities available during this year's festival as well as view their location on a map.
