First look inside Glasgow Berlinkys as £2.3m live music venue opens this week


Berlinkys has given a sneak peek of what the state-of-the-art entertainment space will look like when it opens its doors to the public this weekend.

The exciting new venue, which the team say will be a "one-of-a-kind party haven" is set to offer a top line-up of comedy, live bands, dancers and even aerial artists.

A preview video shows the completed venue with flamboyant décor, chic lighting and a state-of-the-art stage as the focal point of the ground floor, which has been cleverly positioned at the heart of the venue, so guests can enjoy the entertainment from wherever they are seated.

It also shows the stylish bar area with plenty of room to dance and socialise, as well as a relaxed lounge towards the back of the venue, with plush furnishings and a cosy fireplace creating a more intimate feel.

The upper floor of the venue provides a central viewing platform towards the ground floor stage with plenty of additional seating, as well as another bar, private entertaining in The Gallery, and corporate space and a smaller stage for more intimate gigs.

Operations manager at Berlinkys, Brendan Curran, said: “We’re just days away from opening our doors to our first guests and we couldn’t be more excited.

“We’ve spent months bringing this vision to life and we can’t believe it’s nearly time to share it with the world.

“There is something for everyone at Berlinkys – whether it’s dancing on the tables with your friends until 3am or catching up with your nearest and dearest over a drink and some homecooked food, we’ve got it all.”

Last week, bosses announced the arrival of the venue in the city, as well as an exciting nightly entertainment schedule from some of the UK’s best musicians, performers and comedians including Susie McCabe and Viv Gee.

Berlinkys has been kitted out with a £250,000 sound system, as well as a £80,000 kitchen so guests can tuck into a menu of home-cooked classics without missing a minute of the action.

The new spot opens its doors from 12pm on Friday (October 4).

Berlinkys is also currently hiring for a variety of job roles, including chefs and front of house staff. To find out more, and to submit your application, head to the website.
