While we are hoping to open on Mon 31st, we are in fact still waiting for the final approval from Sport Scotland. We have lots of things we'd like to share with you before we open, but are currently paused. We'll be back with more info as soon as we can. #reopening #coronavirus

It's official we're opening The Newsroom + The Prop Store on Mon 31 Aug. Just 3 days to go. We'll be sharing more info over the next few days so please keep an eye on our feed or click now for more theclimbingacademy.com/tca-life/reope… #TCA #IheartTCA #Glasgow #weclimbuk #bouldering #climbing

2 days to go until we reopen. THERE IS NO NEED TO BOOK. We wanted to avoid funnelling all centre-users into crowded arrival/leaving times, to give a constant flow through the day. If you have leeway please avoid coming in early evenings to help spread the load. #TCA #IheartTCA

From Monday we will have NEW OPENING TIMES at both Glasgow centres as we get to grips with new systems: THE NEWSROOM Mon-Fri 7am-10pm (now open for pre-work climbing 5 days/wk)! Sat-Sun 9am-6pm THE PROP STORE Mon-Fri 12pm-10pm Sat-Sun 9am-6pm

Are you as excited as we are? 😃 We are taking your safety very seriously with lots of new hygiene practises. Please sanitise your hands regularly before, during and after your session; practise good cough hygiene and of course social distance 🙏 theclimbingacademy.com/tca-life/reope…

1 day to go! Our live capacity tracker goes live tomorrow to help you see how busy we are before you come. Don't forget to CHECK IN and CHECK OUT, so that we know how many people are in the building. theclimbingacademy.com/tca-life/capac… #TCA #theclimbingacademy #IheartTCA #Glasgow

Initially, we will just be open for climbing. Our courses and classes will not be running. The ROPED CLIMBING AREA WILL BE CLOSED at The Prop Store. All of these things will be reinstated over time once we are happy that they can be operated safely. #TCA #IheartTCA #Glasgow

It's nearly time to climb! To minimise queues and interaction at reception, please consider buying online theclimbingacademy.com/tca-life/membe… #TCA #theclimbingacademy #IheartTCA #Glasgow #weclimbuk #indoorclimbing #bouldering #climbing #climb #rockclimbing

WELCOME BACK 🎉The Newsroom will reopen 7am-10pm + The Prop Store 12pm-10pm today. We'll have a reduced capacity at both centres. Please arrive ready to climb and bring your own water. Face coverings are optional for climbing - but please wear them elsewhere in centres. Thanks 🙏

Happy return to indoor climbing! 😃 #indoorclimbing #staysafe #ClimbScotland - Mountaineering Scotland sportscotland - Association of British Climbing Walls - @NICAS_team - Urban Uprising

So what do the new rules mean for TCA Glasgow? We ask all of our climbers to stick to the new restrictions rigidly. Remember that you must practice social distancing + sanitise your hands before, during and after your session. Stay safe. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla… #IheartTCA

We are operating reduced capacities, so if you have a pass, while you used to be able to queue skip, please now wait if there is someone in front of you so access can be granted fairly to climbers who are waiting in the order they arrived 🙏How busy is it?theclimbingacademy.com/tca-life/capac…
