Get Ahead of the Curve: Confetti Festival at Òran Mór

Scottish Confetti Wedding Festival

Scottish Confetti Wedding Festival 2026

If you’re a couple who’s already got engaged — instead of waiting for the predictable Christmas/New Year proposal season — then congratulations, you’re officially ahead of the pack. And your timing couldn’t be better. On 17–18 January 2026, Òran Mór in Glasgow’s West End hosts the Scottish Confetti Wedding Festival, just a short walk from our West End hotel on Elderslie Street.

This festival is packed with over 70 top-notch wedding suppliers, live entertainment, catwalk shows, and more inspiration than your Pinterest boards can manage. Whether you’re dreaming of artisanal cakes, jaw-dropping florals, unforgettable venues, or a photographer who understands your needs — you’ll find it here.

And let’s be honest: wedding planning takes time. You’re building a whole celebration, so treating yourselves to a comfy, no-rush weekend stay at the Acorn Hotel is not only practical — it’s just the right thing to do. Especially with Òran Mór’s legendary late-night bar, Fonn Mór, all too happy to keep you celebrating long after the festival doors close.

Our award-winning, highly rated 3-star hotel fills up early for events like this, so don’t leave it to chance. Stay just minutes from the action, stroll over to the festival, chat with the pros, and start shaping the big day in style.
