The O₂ Academy Glasgow (formerly the Carling Academy Glasgow) is a music venue on Eglinton Street in the Gorbals (Laurieston) area of Glasgow. It holds 2,500 people. It was one of two Academy Music Group venues in Glasgow, until the O₂ ABC Glasgow closed due to fire damage in 2018.

It was one of a group of music venues in Britain branded Carling Academy, the best known including the Brixton Academy and the O₂ Academy Birmingham. Since November 2008, the venue has been rebranded by network operator O₂ to its new name, following a new sponsorship deal with Live Nation.
