Europe’s biggest sneaker festival is returning to Glasgow this autumn, promising a day packed with rare trainers, streetwear, live DJs and interactive experiences for fans of footwear and fashion.
Crepe City will take over the Scottish Events Campus (SEC) on Sunday, October 12, following a hugely successful debut in 2022 and increasingly popular follow-up events.
The festival has grown to host more than 120 vendors offering everything from the latest hyped releases to rare, vintage trainers sought after by collectors. Streetwear fans will also find top UK brands, with Palace, Supreme and The Hundreds among those represented, Glasgow Live reports.
Running from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Crepe City is open to all ages, with free entry for children under 10. Tickets are available online, including an early entry option from 11 a.m., which includes a drink voucher sponsored by Desperado Beer, with soft drink alternatives available.

Crep Protect will be at the event to help visitors keep their trainers in top condition while offering prizes through their Cop or Flop Keymaster Machine.
Festival-goers can also enjoy a Monster Energy booth with gaming activations and prizes, street food and a bar, plus a team of DJs spinning hip-hop, rap and more throughout the day.
A highlight for streetwear enthusiasts is the Garmentz Lab pop-up shop, where fans of Stone Island can find pieces priced below retail.
“Don’t miss the Garmentz Lab pop up shop, if you are into Stone Island you don’t want to miss this. The guys will have some amazing pieces priced below retail,” the organisers said.
Crepe City first launched in London in 2009, starting in a basement before growing into Europe’s largest sneaker festival.
The Glasgow edition has quickly established itself as a must-visit event, offering visitors a rare chance to browse thousands of exclusive trainers in one venue.
