Live Zones Planned For Glasgow 2014
Live zones where the public can view events from the 2014 Commonwealth Games on big screens are planned in several locations across Glasgow according to organisers.
Glasgow 2014, working in conjunction with Glasgow City Council and Glasgow Life, will create the zones across the city where all the major events from the Games, including the Opening and Closing Ceremonies, will be free to watch on the big screens.
The zones will also showcase Festival 2014, which is being staged at the same time as the Games, and will act as a celebration of the arts and culture of Glasgow.
Executive member for the Commonwealth Games and the chair of Glasgow Life, Archie Graham, said: ‘Glasgow knows how to put on a party and whether you’re in town to watch a sporting event, or just want to sample the excitement, you won’t have to go far to be part of the Games. Glasgow has an outstanding track record in hosting events, such as the Merchant City Festival, Mela and World Pipe Band Championships – and we plan to build on that success by hosting the biggest party the city has ever seen.’
