On the 15th March 2013 a few of Lourdes Secondary pupils were lucky enough to be given the opportunity to get a sneak preview of the Hydro – “Scotland’s new home of live entertainment”. Lois, Amy, Ethan, Louis, Conner and Kathleen in S1 and S2 were accompanied to the venue by their English teacher Ms Grehan. The pupils were given the chance to interview Julie McKinnon, Business Development Manager of the Hydro, to find out all about the Scotland’s exciting new music venue to see interview click here.
The Hydro, when it is completed, will have a seating capacity of 12,000 and will host around 140 music events each year. There will be acts for everyone to enjoy as the Hydro has already booked up popular acts such as Jessie J, Bruno Mars, The Proclaimers, Fleetwood Mac plus many more. The Hydro will play an integral role in the 2014 Commonwealth Games as the home for both gymnastics and the netball finals at the games.
