Country 2 Country (C2C) Glasgow

About Country 2 Country (C2C) Glasgow

Country 2 Country (C2C) Glasgow 2027 puts a three-day country-music arena event inside Glasgow’s OVO Hydro from 12–14 March. The wider C2C festival launched in London in 2013, with Glasgow added in 2016 at Clyde Auditorium.

The Glasgow edition sits in the C2C city format rather than a camping field. It runs indoors.

Who Is It For?

The audience is country-music fans, with a mixed-age crowd in an arena setting. OVO Hydro recommends that under-14s do not attend standing areas; seated areas are suitable for patrons over 5 unless the organiser states otherwise. Under-5s are generally not recommended for concerts or events except children’s shows.

The Venue and Site

The site is the OVO Hydro on the Scottish Event Campus, an indoor arena with an official maximum capacity of 14,300. The Town Square trader area sits alongside the Glasgow event.

Bars and food outlets operate inside the venue, and on-site services cover free Wi‑Fi, cloakroom, box office, toilets including accessible provision, baby-changing facilities, a Changing Places toilet, first-aid cover and ATM cash machines. There is no camping, and overnight queuing or camping on campus is not permitted.
