Glasgow Requiem is a 5-year creative programme spanning public ceremony, community archaeology, horticultural design, sound works, live performance and imaginative responses to Glasgow’s mediaeval roots, pre-industrial history and founding mythologies.

The Walk is the latest programme as part of Glasgow Requiem, a journey through the oldest parts of the city of Glasgow, narrated and hosted by Gary Lewis (Billy Elliot, Outlander) and other voices.

Beginning in Townhead and taking in iconic landmarks such as the Royal Infirmary, Cathedral and Necropolis, this captivating audio walk will lead you through some of the city’s most visited places and uncover some of the hidden lives and stories they’re built on.

“You have to look through things sometimes to see the truth”

Whether you know Glasgow like the back of your hand or you’re just visiting, join us for a fresh and unusual glimpse into the city during its 850th anniversary year.
