Thrill-seekers can go wild on the fairground rides inspired by New York's Coney Island; such as the dodgems and giant wheel with panoramic views across the city.
Over 18s can kick back at the beach bar on deck chairs while enjoying a summer tipple.
Clyde Island chiefs are behind Spootacular and Galatic Festival that went down at storm at Silverburn shopping centre.
The ticketed event that operates with a token system claims to be 'purse-friendly' with discounts and offers available.
Street food vendors will also be on site with eateries being announced over the coming weeks on social media.
