The Mediaeval Glasgow Trust, Glasgow Churches Together and Glasgow Life organise the yearly St Mungo Festival. It celebrates our patron saint and endeavours to increase awareness of Glasgow’s history through free events and exhibitions which bring alive the story of the city’s founding to all its people. It is held around the Feast Day of St Mungo on the 13 January. The 2026 Festival is its seventeenth year.
After a successful Festival in 2025 which marked the 850th Anniversary of Glasgow’s incorporation, you are invited to the 2026 St Mungo’s Festival which aims to celebrate the city’s patron saint and increase awareness of Glasgow’s rich history.
All events are free to book or attend. More details can be found at: stmungofestival.co.uk
