Clydebuilt Festival
Back for 2023, the Clydebuilt Festival will return to the Riverside Museum and on the Clyde on Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd September!
About Clydebuilt Festival
Glasgow’s river festival is back on 2nd & 3rd September. On shore, on the water, on the Clyde. Free entry and family friendly.
On shore
Not got your sea legs yet? Don’t worry, there’s plenty of action on dry land. Try your hand at outdoor survival skills, traditional crafts and creative pursuits . Or leave the hard work to the professionals, and browse the collection of handmade, local products at the Clydebuilt Market.
We’ll keep the wee ones busy with live pirate action aboard the Tallship, scallywag stories, and build your own boats.
In the music tent you will find everything from electric ceilidh and acoustic sets to sea shanties and historic fishing songs, including performances in Gaelic. Fill your boots with grub from Glasgow’s best food vendors, grab a drink in the Clydebuilt Bar, and soak up the atmosphere.
On the water
‘Castle to Crane’ is Scotland’s biggest open water rowing race, where more than 80 boats race from the historic Dumbarton Castle to the iconic Finnieston Crane. Teams from around the globe travel to be first at the finish line, winning the Meridien Cup and first dibs at the bar. As long as you’ve got a fixed seat, boats of all shapes and sizes can enter this banging race. Get your entries in now!
On day 2 - enter the dragons! Tenacious Glasgow teams wanted to battle it out to become the Dragon Boat Racing Champions and win the coveted Dragon Trophy. No experience necessary. Fancy dress encouraged. The perfect team building or sponsorship activity.
For those looking to dip their toes in water sports, why not try your hand at canoeing, kayaking or rowing with a variety of taster sessions on offer.
