Glasgow’s newest events and wedding venue, The Collectors Hall has officially opened, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for a historic city landmark.

Originally built as Glasgow’s City Parish Hall, the building has stood as a silent witness to over a century of civic life, community gatherings, and historic milestones. Its architectural grandeur—featuring vaulted ceilings, intricate stonework, and stately proportions—tells the story of a city rich in character. Now, after years of dormancy, the space has been restored and reimagined it for a new generation of memories.

The Grade A listed building has been transformed into a show-stopping venue for weddings, celebrations, corporate events and dining experiences. Highlights include soaring ceilings, a dramatic glass-roofed courtyard, and a city centre location just off George Square.

Craig Munro, General Manager of AC by Marriott Glasgow, shared his excitement about the launch: “Welcoming guests into The Collector’s Hall for the first time is a moment I’ll never forget. As General Manager of The Collector's Hall and AC Hotel by Marriott Glasgow, I’ve had the privilege of watching this extraordinary building evolve—from a forgotten parish hall into one of the city’s most exclusive destinations for weddings, events, and conferences.

With over 240 beautifully designed rooms, including heritage suites overlooking George Square, we’re offering something truly unique: a fully integrated venue experience in the very heart of Glasgow.”
