Fans of street food - and street parties - can enjoy a huge celebration in Glasgow's west end this summer.

The organisers behind the Ashton Lane Street Party are promising "a melting pot of flavours from around the world", as part of their 'ultimate' street food festival next month.

Taking place on Saturday, August 24 and Sunday, August 25, the popular food and drink destination just off Byres Road will be hosting a summer street party with a difference.

The free event will run from 12 pm until 10pm, and the Facebook event page reads: "From savoury to sweet, we've got it all. Join us for a day of culinary delights, live music, and good vibes. Sample mouth-watering dishes, enjoy slushie cocktails and hopefully a dose of Scottish sunshine.

"Whether you're a foodie looking to try something new or just looking to enjoy a fun day out with friends and family, the street food festival has something for everyone.

"Don't miss out on this delicious event! Mark your calendars and come hungry. See you there!

You can find more info on the Facebook event page.
