About West End Bus Fest

We’re delighted that our popular free vintage bus service for Glasgow’s West End will be returning for 2023! The WestFest, previously the West End Festival, returns after an absence of a few years.

On Sunday 25th June a selection of Vintage Buses from the GVVT collection at Bridgeton will operate a frequent service connecting Riverside Museum with Broomhill, Anniesland and the Botanic Gardens. We also plan to have some vehicles on display on the display area outside Riverside Museum.

You can join our buses at any stop en-route, change buses as often as you wish, and it’s all free!
