TRNSMT's wellbeing team keeping festival goers safe and well during blazing weather

For even the most ardent festival-goer, hours on end of live music, blistering bass and libations can be a little much sometimes - which is where TRNSMT's wellbeing tent comes in.

Run by charity Crew 2000, the wellbeing tent has evolved from a source of support and knowledge on drugs to a little nook of peace and quiet at the centre of the weekend-long party on Glasgow Green. Anyone needing a few minutes out from the non-stop festivities can drop by the wellbeing tent - a comfortable and well-furnished zone at the western end of the TRNSMT arena.

In the cosy confines of the tent - supplied by TRNSMT organisers DF Concerts - purple-clad volunteers are on hand to dish out cups of water, provide blankets to those feeling the cold in their festival garb and offer comfy beanbags to those wanting to take the weight off. Crew 2000 also offers judgement free advice on harm reduction - a concession, neither supportive nor condemning, to the fact that some people will choose to use drugs to elevate their festival high.
