Trick or Treat

This Halloween season, the doors to 10 epic realms will open. It’s time to Trick or Treat!

Ten worlds to excite or scare*. Knock knock… if you dare.

Buckle up (or dress up!) for a 60 minute outdoor blockbuster as GlasGLOW returns to Glasgow’s Botanic Gardens.

* This year at GlasGLOW, there will be one area - Clowntown - that some may find a little scary. An alternative route will be available for those who prefer to skip this section.

Discover the ten realms

There is no light without dark, no trick without treat. Dare to knock?

Doing good for the community

As locals ourselves, it’s important to us that every year with GlasGLOW, comes lasting good.

Since The itison Pumpkin Fund launched in 2019, we have raised over £80,000 to support local projects throughout Glasgow and given away over 7,000 tickets to local charities and community groups for those who might not be able to attend otherwise.

This year we are excited to be calling out for local charities in the west end and surrounding areas to apply for support from The itison Pumpkin Fund with the goal to support a minimum of ten charities with at least £1,000 each.
