The Muller Indoor Grand Prix Glasgow meeting was held on February 15, 2020. The meet was held at the Emirates Arena, in Glasgow, Scotland. The Emirates Arena hosted the 2019 European Indoor Athletics Champs to a fine crowd, the year before. The Scottish fans were there to see home grown stars like Laura Muir and Jemma Reeke.
