For the finer things, visit the Clyde Lifestyle Marquee at the Boat Show
Beyond the gleaming paintwork of the top-of-the range vehicles and before you reach the rows of pristine boats, there is an oasis of luxury just waiting to be explored.
The Clyde Lifestyle Marquee is packed with everything from designer furniture, clothing and jewellery to modern treasures created by Scotland’s top crafters. Sponsored by Clyde Life Magazine,
the marquee will bring together the very best of what’s on offer in many of the area’s independent outlets as well as others by invitation from further afield. The Association of Scottish Crafters, famous for their Best of Scotland events, is also represented in the form of talented and creative craftspeople.

Although what’s on offer is diverse, all the exhibitors have the same things in common, quality and a commitment to excellence. “We so are sure this collection of crafters, artists and retailers will be popular that we are already planning a series of markets across west central Scotland throughout the coming months,” added Charles.
