Not been here for some time and the place has be refurbished since the last time I visited many years ago. The building is of course magnificent. I came here not for the sports but the museum collections. Housed in the Kelvin Hall is a collection resulting from a partnership between the National Library of Scotland and other Glasgow museums. Kelvin Hall now provides a shared collections storage facility with public access called the Kevin Hall Open Collection. So now housed in this one building are the National Library's digital and moving image collections, collections from the Hunterian and other Glasgow Museums. Nice place to to spend an afternoon of eclectic museum collections

Probably the only chance to see what was billed as the most complete 67 million year old t rex skeleton in the world, there was lots of interactive exhibits which my daughter enjoyed and there was lots of information about t rex , the entry fee was really steep, I paid 22 for me and my 6 year old daughter, 14 for an adult and 8 for a child, there was no free parking either
T-Rex. Stunning.
nice but too expensive Trex exhibition, rest of the collection needs a thourough rethinking and upgrade, as it is not clear what it has on offer. Friendly staff.
Beautiful artwork. Worth checking out.
The Kelvin Halls Open Collection is an incredible combined open-access research and storage facility made possible through the partnership of Glasgow Museums, Glasgow University Hunterian Museum and the National Library of Scotland. Housed in the lovingly refurbished Kelvin Hall, visitors are able to view the items from the Glasgow Museums' Collection and the Hunterian Collection which are not on display in the respective museums. The facility is also home to the National Library of Scotland's Digital Collections which include the entire Moving Image Archive and access to all digitised resource materials such as newspapers and maps, etc. The Open Collections has good disabled access and a pretty decent cafe with views over the River Kelvin. A befitting inheritor to the much loved Transport Museum which used to be housed there (now re-branded as the Riverside Museum at its new home downstream the Kelvin where it meets the Clyde)! 5*****
Nice art, free, some variety. I like the fact it's in a gym place
Lovely modernisation
