Glasgow's TRNSMT changes set times to show Scotland World Cup 2026 fixture

TRNSMT has adjusted its set times for this year's festival so attendees can watch the Scottish men's football team play in the FIFA World Cup 2026.

In an announcement shared via Instagram yesterday (March 4), the Glasgow-based festival confirmed that it will show Scotland's group stage game against Morocco on Friday, June 19, at the main stage for its expected 50,000 attendees.

While the main stage headline slot at TRNSMT typically runs until its 11:PM curfew, Richard Ashcroft's set will end "with plenty of time" to ensure fans can soak up the pre-match atmosphere at Glasgow Green, BBC News reports.

"HWFGGG the Hampden roar is coming to Glasgow Green," TRNSMT said, promising that attendees will be able to "enjoy top class tunes and cheer on Scotland in the World Cup live from the biggest screens in Scotland, with your mates, pints and an atmosphere like no other."
