The city of Glasgow received the Unesco Creative Cities award and is now recognised as a City Of Music, almost twenty years after it had the European Capital of Culture title in 1990.

Unesco award these titles to cities around the world for their promotion of literature, music and arts and more and other cities who have received an award include Berlin, Buenos Aires and Montreal.

Bob Winters accepted the award on behalf of Glasgow and said:

“It is wonderful to be accepting the Unesco City of Music Award on behalf of Glasgow.  I am thrilled that Glasgow’s rich and varied musical heritage has been recognised by Unesco. We embrace the award on behalf of our talented musicians and composers whose work has contributed to our great city being given the permanent prestige of being a City of Music.”
