That the Parliament welcomes the return of the Clydebuilt Festival at Glasgow's Riverside Museum, which is set to take place on 7-8 September 2024 and will mark the opening of the Govan-Partick footbridge; understands that the event celebrates Glasgow's rich maritime heritage and that aside from the water activities, a range of onshore programmes await festival-goers from ceilidhs, performances from the Glasgow Folk Music Workshop, traditional craft demonstrations, sea monster storytelling sessions, face painting, and a Clydebuilt Market for locally-made products, and acknowledges that the free festival will also host Scotland’s biggest open water competition, Castle to Crane, culminating in a prize-giving celebration at the festival.
