Tale of two cities
As anyone who knows both cities well and therefore what each has to offer and where they offer it, Glasgow is miles ahead when it comes to all levels of cultural provision and involvement.
The citizens of Glasgow are likewise miles ahead of those in Edinburgh when it comes to supporting its many acts and performances, which are spread across the many venues there.

Consistent local patronage and the wide variety of venues in Glasgow are indicative of the enthusiasm and co-operative involvement in support of the many and varied cultural happenings, large and small, which happen in that city. It’s a fact. What’s special about Edinburgh is that it’s too special.
