TRNSMT 2025: Festival-goers endure heatwave at Glasgow’s music event

The TRNSMT music festival is underway in Glasgow, Scotland, amid a weekend-long heatwave. Taking place at Glasgow Green, Scotland’s largest festival is attracting crowds of up to 50,000 people daily. The festival spans three days, with major headliners including 50 Cent on Friday, Biffy Clyro on Saturday, and Snow Patrol on Sunday. Saturday saw the mercury rise to 29°C, making it the hottest day of the year in Scotland. The heat was felt by both fans and performers, with many band members commenting on the extreme temperatures. Despite the sweltering conditions, the atmosphere remained electric as fans enjoyed live performances, with some taking refuge in shaded areas or cooling off with drinks. The event marks a significant cultural moment for Glasgow, as the festival continues to grow in popularity, drawing people from across the UK and beyond. The high temperatures have added a challenging layer to an already high-energy event, but organizers have ensured that fans have access to plenty of hydration stations to keep cool throughout the weekend.
