If you thought Paisley felt extra lively today, you weren’t imagining it. Glasgow Airport has seen a non-stop stream of high-profile arrivals ahead of tonight’s opening ceremony for the 2026 Commonwealth Games.
Earlier today, newly appointed Prime Minister Andy Burnham arrived in Scotland, paving the way for the arrival of King Charles and Queen Camilla later this evening.

There’s a real buzz in the air across Renfrewshire as the eyes of the Commonwealth turn to Scotland. Who else is tuning into the opening ceremony tonight? 🏆🏴
