TRNSMT 2023 Glasgow road restrictions to be aware of during music festival

TRNSMT will soon be taking place with the Glasgow Green music festival set to kick off from July 7 to the 9th. With the countdown now on, festival-goers have been warned about what they can expect as well as what they need to prepare for before heading down.

Official organisers have said the venue is 'cashless' warning: "TRNSMT is a fully cashless site so bars and food stalls will only accept contactless or chip and pin."

So if you have cash, they will be unable to accept this. In another warning they also say: "You cannot leave and re-enter the festival once you are in and your ticket has been scanned." This means that if you bring cash and no other ways to pay, you may find yourself in a tough spot with you also being unable to leave to collect your card.
