Our members are an important part of the Glasgow Vintage Vehicle Trust, and throughout the year we hold a range of special events exclusively for you. These gatherings offer opportunities to hear from guest speakers, learn more about transport history, enjoy behind-the-scenes access, and connect with fellow enthusiasts and volunteers.
Our programme for the coming year will be announced soon. In the meantime, here is an example of the types of talks and presentations we have hosted in previous seasons:
