ONE of Glasgow's most iconic music venues is opening a new outdoor beer garden for summer.
The Lane, which is located in a back cobbled lane beside Platform, is a new "urban oasis" that seats more than 100 people with decorative pergolas, colourful festoon lighting and blooming hanging baskets.
Tonight, to celebrate the opening, Gordon Airlie will provide live entertainment and top touring band Fleetwood Max will also perform in one of the arches from 7.30pm with the Fleetwood Mac Disco.
The beer garden will be open every weekend from 12pm to 10pm and guests can dine on Platform's popular street food kitchen menu, from their Korean fired chicken to wood-fired pizzas, or new dishes like cajun shrimp tacos.
For drinks, there is a wide range of cocktails and spirits, with includes new additions to the menu such as a passionfruit daiquiri, strawberry martini and rum punch.
Kathryn McCormick, owner of Platform, said: "In true Scottish fashion the weather looks like it might tip down this weekend but we won’t let that dampen our spirits.
"Our outdoor lane is an urban oasis in the city and we promise it’ll light up your weekend.
"We’re excited to launch The Lane and our new menu and of course, we’ll be open inside or out if it chucks down from the heavens.
"Come and join us for food and drink and a dance at the Fleetwood Disco.
"It’s one of my favourite nights out."
Tickets for the Fleetwood Mac Disco cost £14 per person and can be booked HERE.
