From gate opening times to train stations near the festival site - here’s almost everything you need to know about TRNSMT 2025 🎶🎪🎶
  • TRNSMT 2025 is set to take place from July 11 - 13 2025.
  • This year’s headline acts are 50 Cent, Biffy Clyro and Snow Patrol.
  • But while you wait for stage times to be announced, what about what time you should head to Glasgow Green - and how to get there, for that matter?

TRNSMT Festival has a beloved place in the hearts of many festival lovers, when it took the mantle from the dearly missed T In The Park, which held its last event in 2016.

But since Glasgow Green became the new stomping ground for a Scottish based festival, fans across Europe have had the chance to experience some incredible sets of yesteryear, dating back to Radiohead headlining the first festival back in 2017 - there’s a reason it won Best New Festival at the 2017 UK Festival Awards.

We’ve pulled together some local knowledge, alongside a look at accommodation around the area, to bring you almost everything you wanted to know before heading to TRNSMT 2025 but were perhaps afraid to ask.
