FOLLOWING THE SUCCESS OF POTFEST IN THE CITY – GLASGOW LAST YEAR, WE ARE PLEASED TO  ANNOUNCE THE RETURN AND GROWTH OF THIS SHOW IN  2026.

Potfest Scotland – Potfest in the City (Glasgow) is an unselected show, offering a new opportunity for those up-and-coming artists to exhibit their work alongside the more established, Potfest regulars.

The show will be hosted by WASPS in their Brigait venue, the old fish markets.

Less than 15 minutes walk from Glasgow Central Station, less than 20 minutes from Queen Street Station and just an 10 minute walk from St Enoch Subway.

Over 100 artists selling their work on the run up to Christmas

A gallery of the exhibitors taking part is available via the link at the bottom of this page

POTTERS’ COMPETITION

At each of the Potfest shows, the potters are invited to enter a piece of their work that responds to a theme.

Sadly because of space limitations at this venue we are unable to run the themed competition at this show, instead, visitors are asked to vote for their favourite stand.

As a more interactive element at this show, visitors will be able to get hands on as  “Potfest Makes Glasgow” an architectural look at the cities well known buildings and skyline.

The venue is indoors with a mostly flat floor (no steps) although the site is sheltered from the weather it can be a little chilly at this time of year so visitors are advised to wrap up warm. There will be accessible toilets available.If you have any concerns or queries please contact us and we will endeavour to clarify any questions you may have.

Dogs

Because this show is indoors, I’m afraid that only special assistance dogs will be allowed.
