Glasgow Barras to host 'Parisian carnival under the stars' Moulin Rouge night market
Kicking off Glasgow Pride weekend in style, the Moulin Rouge night market will follow up previous successful events like the hugely popular now annual Hong Kong market.

Taking place on Thursday, July 17, the one off event will run from 5pm until 10pm and see the London Road market transformed as the official warm-up event before Glasgow's Pride takes over the market and Barrowland Ballroom on July 19.

The organisers said: "Expect a night full of high kicks, music, and dazzling lights as we transform the Barras into a Parisian carnival under the stars.

"Dressing up is highly encouraged! Think corsets, feathers, glitter, and Moulin Rouge glam!"

They added that fans can expect live can-can dancer performances, DJ sets, fabulous photo opps, carnival vibes and over 100 street food vendors and traders "bringing colour, culture, and community" throughout the entire market.

They added: "This is your chance to strut your stuff, celebrate freely, and get into the Pride spirit with a night of fun and freedom."

Free entry, with everyone welcome, the event is also dog friendly and offers free on street parking in surrounding area.
