The Riverside Museum's cobbled Victorian street has gone magical for the rest of the year. The old shopfronts now belong to witches and wizards, so as you wander along you'll come across wands for sale, saddles made for dragons and a sweet shop full of spells. Children can follow a little trail of figures through the street to find out which of three magic houses they belong to: Pilcher, Pullinger or Ovinius. It's free, there's no ticket to book, and you can drop in any time the museum is open until 31 December. The museum sits on the Clyde by the Glasgow Harbour, with a café inside for afterwards.
