One of the two student unions at the University of Glasgow, the QMU is a not-for-profit registered charity solely aimed at providing experience, services and social and cultural enrichment to the students of the University at as low a price as humanly possibly, if not free.

Run by an elected Board of student volunteers, the QMU comprises bars, a shop, cafe, servery and coffee bar, nightclub/gig venue, and enough social space to fill the hulking concrete bomb shelter upon which it was presumably modelled.

We take every opportunity to ensure the details for Queen Margaret Union are accurate, if any of the above information is incorrect we would appreciate if you could take a minute to suggest an edit.

All information (whether in text or photographs) is supplied in good faith but should not be relied upon as being a statement of representation or fact.
