It's recommended to book your venue at least 3 months in advance, particularly for popular venues in the city centre and near Merchant City. Prime spaces, like the Guinness Bar at Waxy O'Connor's or VEGA, can fill up quickly, especially on weekends or during major city events. For larger-scale bookings, like One Under Glasgow, planning even further ahead—around 6 months to a year—is advisable.

Riverboat Casino is a fantastic choice if you're looking for a spacious spot with room for up to 300 and entertainment options like karaoke, poker, and more.
