The Exchange

Occupying the upper floors of an iconic A-listed blonde sandstone building in Royal Exchange Square, The Exchange is Glasgow’s newest multi-functional, luxurious exclusive event space. With four individually styled rooms, three private bars, a hidden outdoor terrace, and unparalleled views over Royal Exchange Square and the Gallery of Modern Art, we can host events from 60 to 350 guests.

Each space within The Exchange has its own character. We adore The Gallery, flooded with natural light and boasting breath-taking views of the Gallery of Modern Art. Its centrepiece is a hand-carved, candle-lit Italian marble fireplace, creating a stunning backdrop for any event.

The Parlour offers a serene oasis — perfect for private dining experiences or as a calm, elegant space for bridal preparations. With a variety of atmospheres and settings, The Exchange offers an area for every couple or guest to fall in love with.

When hosting a corporate event at The Exchange, you’ll have access to our full suite of cutting-edge audio-visual equipment throughout the day. With high-speed Wi-Fi, projectors, drop-down screens, roaming microphones and more, the venue is fully equipped to support breakout sessions, keynote panels, and dynamic multi-format events tailored to your business needs.

Located within walking distance of Queen Street Station, Central Station, and Buchanan Bus Station, The Exchange is easily accessible for both local and out-of-town guests. Whether you're planning a high-impact conference, a product launch, or a black-tie gala dinner, our experienced team will deliver seamless service from your initial enquiry until your final guest departs.

The venue is designed to be truly versatile. You can utilise the full venue or select individual spaces, each elegantly finished with timeless, neutral design elements that can be customised to reflect your brand’s identity. The Exchange is a standout venue for corporate events, offering a unique blend of sophistication, flexibility, and memorability — the perfect setting to leave a lasting impression.
