Detail InformationEdit
The Arches is a bar, arts venue, theatre, live music venue and nightclub in Glasgow, Scotland, which first opened in 1991. It is a not-for-profit organisation. It is situated in the City Centre under Glasgow Central station and the West Coast Main Line in the brick arches of the Viaduct that leads into the station, with entrances on Midland Street and since 2001 underneath Hielanman’s Umbrella on Argyle Street. The venue has 65,000 square feet of floor space which is spread over two floors and seven arches.
The site of the venue was a previously derelict area below the Glasgow Central railway station, which was converted to house the Glasgow’s Glasgow exhibition during the city’s year as European City of Culture. After the exhibition had ended, the space was obtained by Andy Arnold in 1991 for the purposes of creating a theatre. That required funding, leading to the decision to stage nightclub events to provide initial funding. This eventually expanded to the array of events it hosts today.
In January 2008, Andy Arnold left The Arches to take up the same Artistic Director role at the Tron Theatre, being succeeded by Jackie Wylie.
