It’s sometimes said that "Glasgow made the Clyde, and the Clyde made Glasgow".
Our port city has been chosen to host a global event for nearly two weeks from Sunday 31 October and we want all of you, regardless of your reason for visiting, to stay safe during your time here.
Clyde Waterfront is home to some of Glasgow’s most popular visitor attractions and will understandably be attracting a lot of people during the COP26 summit.
Remember:
- check weather forecasts and stay well clear of the waterfront during periods of bad weather
- wear appropriate clothing and footwear for your activity
- alcohol and open water don’t mix
- water temperatures in the UK remain dangerously cold increasing the risk of cold-water shock
- if you see someone in trouble in the water, call 999 for the Coastguard
Whether you’re local or in town for the UN Climate Change Conference, please stay safe near the water. Local restrictions will also be in place – please check.
