When will the TRNSMT 2026 line-up be announced? Here's the exact time the programme will be revealed - and how to get tickets
It’s not long now until we know who will be playing Glasgow Green next June.
After months of speculation it was belatedly confirmed earlier this week that the TRNSMT music festival will be returning to Glasgow Green in 2026.
There had been rumours that T in the Park could return in its place, but instead the event is just being planned for slightly earlier in the year than usual - from June 19-21 rather than its traditional mid-July slot.
And the organisers are not hanging about - with the lineup announcement set to be made this week, just days after the festival dates were released.
TRNSMT has taken place in Glasgow since 2017, when Radiohead, Kasabian and Biffy Clyro topped the bill and is, by quite some distance, Scotland’s largest event of its kind.

It was a replacement for the much-missed T in the Park, bringing the music into the city centre to negate the need for camping.
Since then the likes of Queen, Arctic Monkeys, The Strokes, and Pulp have graced the stage - with local heroes Lewis Capaldi and Gerry Cinnamon cutting their teeth on the smaller stages.
This year saw 50 Cent, Biffy Clyro and Snow Patrol headline, and we’ll soon know who’ll be following them in 2026..
