On Saturday it's both Castlemilk Family Day and the Southside Festival. This year the festival will be situated on the Queen's Park recreational ground and in and around the Glasshouses. The festival kicks off at 11am when the procession leaves Shawlands academy and makes it's way down Pollokshaws Rd, along Allison street, Vicky Road and then Langside road finishing at the Recreational ground. The mainstage runs from 12 - 10pm, there's also an acoustic stage (situated in the bowling club), and another stage in the Glasshouses. There's a relaxation tent, Art in the Park, Integration marque and lots more click here for a programme
Art in the windows also opens on Saturday in Clarkston. If you're in or around the town centre have a look.
On Sunday get up early and head to Tapa or Gusto and Relish for breakfast or if you fancy a fry what about Langside Cafe? Take a wander through the park up to the Glasshouses park up and listen to live Jazz from Joni Keen and Bobby Deans from 12 - 4pm. Then take a wander around Art in the Park, browse through a great selection of contemporary art by Glasgow artists. Langside College also have their end of year art show displaying the students work and just along in the other glasshouse is the GIA's exhibition of a selection of design entries for the Queen's Park Performance Arena.
Once you've browsed through all that art cross over to Millbrae Rd in Langside to the Queen's Park Camera Club who are holding an open day, with an exhibition of members work and are staging 3-D slide shows at 1pm & 3pm. (keep your eyes peeled for the special event QPCC are putting on - Can't tell you yet)
After all that you'll be in need of some fuel and refreshment Cookie will be holding a BBQ outside the Glasshouses all day serving a mix of good food.
