Metallica, Take That and Alanis Morrissette are among some of the biggest names set to play gigs in Glasgow this month.
With TRSNMT 2026 taking place and the first Glasgow Summer Sessions - including day festival State Fayre - kicking off, June is undoubtedly one of the biggest months for music in Scotland.
Outside of festivals, Hampden Park will host massive shows from Take That and Metallica, while Alanis Morrissette is among the first stars due to headline Bellahouston Park this year.
In addition, there will be headline shows from the likes of Marina, Lola Young and Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams at the O2 Academy. Meanwhile, acts including The Stranglers, Sparks and Belle and Sebastian will perform at Kelvingrove Bandstand this month, while stars such as Lily Allen, Robyn and Barry Manilow - during his final concert tour - will take to the stage at the OVO Hydro.
And that’s barely scratching the surface of all the huge names due to perform in Glasgow this June, which also includes the likes of Def Leppard, Teddy Swims and more.
