Located on the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre (SECC), Scotland's national venue for public events. With a tight budget, the building looks as an industrial theatre. It's known as "The Armadillo" due to it's similar shape, but the architect inspiration came from the spirit of the shipbuilding traditions, as it's located beside the River Clyde.
