From TRNSMT Festival to concerts from huge stars such as Kendrick Lamar, Billie Eilish and Kneecap in Glasgow, July is set to be a huge month for music in Scotland.
Even for those outside of the Central Belt, there’s Dundee’s Discovery Festival from July 25 to 27, with shows from headliners including Ocean Colour Scene, The Human League, and Tom Jones.
Then, up in Aberdeen there’s Quayside Concerts headlined by Deacon Blue, Ministry of Sound Classical, Tide Lines, Calum Bowie and the Kaiser Chiefs, all to celebrate the 2025 Tall Ships Races.
There are many, many more individual gigs taking place around the country outside of these massive events.
