quick jump to the buzz page for RSAMD

main activity is play

RSAMD, or Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama to use its full name, is a jewel in Glasgow's crown. New talents in music, opera and acting are encouraged and trained here.

Who knows which major future talent you'll see first hand? Thrilling...;-)

Of course, its important to make sure your evening at RSAMD goes with as much vim and vigour as possible. Luckily, this part of the city has several top places for a spot of RSAMD pre theatre fun. As well as quality bars for a lively or peaceful drink. Perfect...

Have a fun evening at RSAMD.

laid back rsamd pre theatre...

glasgow sharing with friends at lively pre-theatre

If you're getting excited about your visit to RASMD, or if your attending with a bunch of friends, maybe some RSAMD pre theatre with some energy sounds right...

  • Light and airy, with decor of pale wood, blues and lots of shining windows, Mussel Inn /Browse/Restaurant/Mussel_Inn(reveal best table deals?) has been catching fans in its (lobster) pots for quite a while now. Juicy moules in steaming pots arrive with your choice of mouth watering sauce. As do plump and tempting scallops. Perfect for RSAMD pre theatre. Thankfully, enough crusty bread to soak up all those heavenly sauces turns up too... sigh...;-)
  • Warm and friendly, something just that bit different awaits at Red Onion /Browse/Restaurant/Red_Onion(reveal best table deals?) . Mr Quigley, the owner, spent time travelling the world as chef to the stars on tour. No, really. He has used this amazing experience to inject his menus with a few wonders that you won't find elsewhere. For those in the know, this is the funky restaurant to get your RSAMD pre theatre just right. Delicious.

Maybe you're visiting RSAMD as part of a Big Date, or during a special celebration. In this case, you'll need a restaurant to match your evening...

  • Charming and Italian, the garlic-laden thrills served by Amarone /Browse/Restaurant/Amarone(reveal best table deals?) are well worth a visit. Warm and inviting the authentic Italian cuisine served up in style here has locals in the know returning time and again. Chances are, you'll plan a return visit for more RSAMD pre theatre too...;-)
  • If you have fish on your mind for dinner, look on further than Gamba /Browse/Restaurant/Gamba(reveal best table deals?) . This discreet little basement restaurant treats diners to excellent meals with a focus on fish. Although other options keep everyone happy. Make sure to check out the specials of the day - and be ready to face some serious RSAMD pre theatre choices....;-)

fun drinks with friends...

glasgow head-spinning drinks at fun nights out

Feeling excited about your visit to RSAMD? What you need is a drink or two with your friends, either before or after having a blast...

  • Hidden from view, close to several bustling streets, The Universal (tel: +44 (0) 141 332 8899) makes a great secret place to have a laid back laugh. Only really known to a few funky locals, this charming place is always worth tracking down. They even have some live music, now and again, which makes it even more fun.
  • A bit closer to Central Station, a narrow lane hides the electric charms of Stereo . A large well stocked bar, vegan pub food that always excels, and a small basement venue for live music ensure there is a real party vibe here. Well done tracking this hidden local gem down. Let's get the drinks in...;-)

sophisticated drinks and a chat...

glasgow fab cocktail choices at relaxed nights out

You may be in the mood for a quiet glass of something chilled and fizzing, either before or after your visit to RSAMD.

  • Projecting the polished, mirrored charms of a Parisian cafe, circa 1930, Vroni's never ceases to put a relaxed smile on every visitor's face. Stocking more cases of fizzy fun than we can shake an empty champagne flute at, the relaxed vibe here, complete with spluttering candles and creaking wooden floor, are impossible to beat. Enjoy.
  • Staying open into the wee small hours, Blue Dog sets the scene for a few cool drinks, before or after your RSAMD pre theatre dining. With an active schedule of live soul and jazz, expect to be entertained while you enjoy the sophisticated drinks and your friends company. It doesn't get any better than this...

tourist adventures...

getting snap happy at glasgow attractions

With luck you'll have some spare time on your trip to RSAMD. Why not grab your camera, strap on your tourist walking boots and go exploring?

  • With any luck you'll be staying over in Glasgow. Its always nice to see something of a city's culture while you're there. And Glasgow never fails to impress. Glasgow School of Art (tel: +44 (0) 141 353 4500) dominates the skyline close to RSAMD. Still an active school a century after local hero Charles Rennie Mackintosh designed and built it, tours happen most days. Don't forget your camera...

pampered luxury snoozes...

glasgow lap of luxury at top class stays

When staying over, it makes perfect sense to spoil and pamper yourself, does it not? Glasgow city centre can help here, of course...;-)


  • Including top class cuisine and one of the city centre's best beauty salons, Park Inn Glasgow /Browse/Restaurant/Oshi_at_Park_Inn(reveal best table deals?) (reveal best room deals?) stands proud, close to RSAMD, several theatres, and more shops than we know what to do with.

Sumptuous rooms, utterly professional staff and a dining room with astonishing views over the city centre roofs are just a few of the tempting reasons to pamper yourself here. Kick off your shoes and unwind...
