TRNSMT Festival 2021 will take place Friday 10th – Sunday 12th September 2021 at Glasgow Green, rescheduled from July due to the pandemic.

Up to 50,000 people are expected to be in attendance on each of the days with headliners Courteeners, Liam Gallagher and The Chemical Brothers.

Building of the festival site is now well underway at Glasgow Green and we've been along to see how it's coming together.

Will I need to do a Covid-19 test to get into TRNSMT?

Attendees must take a lateral flow test up to 48 hours BEFORE arriving at Glasgow Green.

The results have to be uploaded to the Government website, by scanning the QR code or entering the ID Number, providing contact details to receive a confirmation text & email – which should be shown to stewards at the site entrances (these can also be screenshotted for convenience too).

Fans attending multiple days across the weekend, will be required to take a second test 48 hours after the first one. So, for example, anyone taking their first test on Friday morning before arriving onsite must take another on Sunday morning before setting off in order to enter the festival.

Organisers are also asking attendees to order or collect their lateral flow tests, which are free of charge, as soon as possible. Anyone who is unable to present proof of a negative result will be denied admittance.
