Glasgow's Emirates Arena and the things you can do from the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome to relaxing spa

If you are looking for something different to do this summer, then a trip to the east end of Glasgow may be on the cards.

Located on London Road, just a short distance from Celtic Park, lies the Emirates Arena - and there's a lot you can do here whether it's winter or summer.

And with the latter now happening and the sunny weather in full swing, some people are looking at ways to pass by the time before they have to return to work, school, college and uni.

Sadly the good weather will not always last and getting out the house is a must to help us relax. So if you want to avoid the rain and try something new, here's what you can currently do at Glasgow's Emirates Arena.
