What's On in Glasgow
Monday 21 September 2026 · This weekend · City guide
Monday in Glasgow refuses to be ordinary, and this third week of September proves it spectacularly. From lunchtime theatre and a proper hot pie to an evening of comedy legends and a spellbinding magic show, the city is laying on a full spread of reasons to get out and be delighted. Whatever your mood, Glasgow has got you covered from noon until the last trick is revealed.
Highlights
A Play, A Pie and A Pint: The Whaler's Wife — One of Scotland's most beloved lunchtime theatre traditions rolls back into Oran Mor at 1:00pm, and this time it brings a story rooted in the wild, salt-lashed world of the whaling industry. The genius of A Play, A Pie and A Pint is baked right into its name — proper drama paired with proper sustenance — making it the perfect midday escape for anyone who thinks theatre should feel nourishing in every sense. Check the website for tickets and grab your seat before the house fills up, because word always gets around fast about this one.

Off the Hook Presents... Daz and Will Unhooked — The much-loved duo Daz and Will take to the grand stage of the Kings Theatre Glasgow at 7:00pm for what promises to be an evening of unfiltered, laugh-out-loud comedy that their devoted fanbase has been waiting for. Unhooked suggests a looser, more spontaneous side to their act — expect the unexpected, expect audience participation, and expect your sides to ache on the walk home. Check the website for tickets, and don't leave it too late; a night like this at one of Glasgow's most storied theatres sells itself.

Piff and Pop's Magic Shoppe — Step into something wonderfully strange at the Pavilion Theatre Glasgow, where Piff and Pop open their Magic Shoppe at 7:30pm for a show that blends illusion, showmanship, and pure theatrical joy in equal measure. This is the kind of magic that works on grown-ups just as well as wide-eyed children — slick, surprising, and performed with a knowing wink that keeps everyone in on the fun. Check the website for tickets, and prepare to leave absolutely convinced that the impossible is, in fact, entirely possible.
