Magical Markets & More near The Kelvingrove Hotel

There’s something magical about The Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum in December — the lights, the buzz, the way the building seems to exude a festive glow. This year, it gets even better as the Tea Green Festive Market arrives to add an extra sparkle to events already taking place.

If you love discovering gifts that no one else has yet discovered, this is your moment.

Wandering through the market you’ll find ceramics you’ll immediately want on your kitchen shelf, textiles and jewellery that are begging to be worn. Every stall brings something different, something crafted with real passion — no mass-produced gifts, just the good stuff.

It’s not just a market; it’s a celebration of Scottish creativity, buzzing with artists, designers, and makers who put their heart into every piece. Since 2014, Tea Green has championed local talent, and this event at The Kelvingrove Gallery & Museum is one of their brightest showcases yet. Even if you think you’ve “seen all the markets,” trust us — think again.

And the best part? It’s right on our doorstep at the Kelvingrove Hotel.

Stay with us and you’re just a short, scenic stroll from all the festive inspiration. Make a weekend of it: browse, discover, support, sip, wander — then come back to the hotel to rest your feet and delight in your new purchases.

December in Glasgow’s West End is unmissable, and we’re ready to welcome you when you’re done exploring.
