Visitors in Glasgow increased due to Brad Pitt's movie

Visitors in Glasgow increased when Brad Pitt was in Glasgow in August, filming his new movie World War Z along with his entire production team.

Gordon Matheson, leader of Glasgow City Council, said: "This is fantastic news for Glasgow."

"Not only did we host major international conferences in August, we also welcomed Brad Pitt and more than 1,000 production staff working on Hollywood blockbuster World War Z, which generated significant business for the city's hotels."

"It is testament to Glasgow's strength and appeal as a short break destination and for major events, conferences and large-scale movie productions, that the city is more than holding its own."

"Not only are our hotel bookings at an all-time high, Glasgow is now also the busiest city in Scotland."
