TRNSMT age restrictions explained as organisers warn 'don't chance it'

Festival organisers have warned TRNSMT attendees to not 'chance their luck' if they are not of age to attend the three-day music fiesta this weekend.

Festival manager Colin Rodger has warned off under-16s from attending the festival, as he told the Glasgow Times that Police Scotland would be cracking down on illegal entry's.

Colin said: "Young people under the age of 16 should not chance coming into the event.

"We have a set age limit and having a fake ID is illegal in Scotland and you can get handed over to the police. That is the process that we have got set up.

"Young people should follow the rules and not chance it. Those over 16 should also make sure their behaviour, once they are inside, is acceptable.

"We've listened to our audience from last year and now, we have put these rules in place."

So, what are the entry rules for TRNSMT Festival 2023?

Who can attend TRNSMT 2023?

According to the official TRNSMT terms and conditions, No under 16s are allowed entry into the festival.

A challenge 25 policy will be in operation at the event, so people are expected to produce photographic ID, if they look under the age of 25.

ID must be valid and in date, and photocopies will not be accepted.

Access to the bar is restricted to those aged 18 and over, and entry will be refused both to the bar and upon entry if you don't bear a resemblance to the ID you are carrying.

It is a criminal offence to use false or borrowed ID to gain entry to a licensed event, and police will be on hand to confiscate illegal IDs.
