The levy has previously been criticised by festival bosses, with TRNSMT organiser Geoff Ellis threatening to take events elsewhere ahead of its introduction.
A tax on tickets for events like festivals and gigs in Glasgow parks is to rise, while Queen’s Park glasshouse won’t reopen and Clydesdale horses will be given away underAnimals, birds and insects from the glasshouse will be rehomed, while the horses, which are at retirement age and were previously kept in Pollok Country Park, are being gifted to a “horse enthusiast”.
At any event with a capacity of 500 to 4,999 people with tickets less than £15, the levy will increase 25p per ticket to 50p a ticket. There is no charge for non-commercial community events. Horses from Pollok Park have been stabled outside Glasgow. They are now at retirement age and will be gifted to a Clydesdale horse enthusiast, the council has said.
