Inside the new events and wedding venue opened at 'historic city landmark'
A brand new events and wedding venue has opened at a "historic city landmark".
The Collector's Hall has officially opened its doors after years of planning.
The building was originally built as Glasgow's City Parish Hall and has "stood as a silent witness to over a century of civic life, community gatherings, and historic milestones".

Craig Munro, general manager of AC by Marriott Glasgow, said: "Welcoming guests into The Collector's Hall for the first time is a moment I'll never forget.
