View allAbout This Event
Irvine Welsh presents an evening of storytelling about a dysfunctional family in Las Vegas at Mackintosh Queens Cross in Glasgow on 4 November 2026. The tour covers the bright lights and back rooms of the city.
Take a riotous tour of the bright lights and back rooms of Las Vegas in the company of one very dysfunctional family. Luke, the dropout son of wealthy Sin City grandparents, lives a hedonistic life of drugs and dance music, until he's pulled into the orbit of a violent cult leader and triggers a horrifying sequence of events. Throw in suspicious neighbours, frustrated housewives, and the pressure cooker of Nevada heat, and it's a thrill ride like no other. Irvine will be joining us to discuss his fascination with troubled characters, the appeal of sub-cultures, the differences between writing Americans and Scots, and much more, as well as answering your questions and signing books.
