TRNSMT 2026 Weather Forecast: Here's what to expect at Scotland's biggest music festival this weekend - should you pack a raincoat?


Are you ready for the three biggest days in Scotland’s live music calendar?
TRNSMT has taken place in Glasgow since 2017, when Radiohead, Kasabian and Biffy Clyro topped the bill.
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 before moving up the bill.
The 2025 festival saw Biffy Clyro, Snow Patrol and 50 Cent close out the main stage on the three night.
This year Richard Ashcroft, Kasabian and homegrown hero Lewis Capaldi will be topping the bill, with numerous other acts playing on the three days from Friday, June 19 - Sunday, June 21.
And there’s a bonus for those going along on the Friday - with Scotland’s crucial World Cup match against Morocco being shown on a big screen after the the music comes to a close.
But the big question is whether the Scottish weather will behave.
Here’s what the forecast is for all three days, and a reminder of when all the acts will play on each of the stages.
What is the weather forecast for TRNSMT 2026?
Here’s what each of the three days of live music have in store weather-wise:
Friday, June 19
For festival-goers who arrive early it looks like there will be a little rain - showers are expected during the afternoon. But the good news is that the sun should come out at around 7pm in time for Wolf Alice’s set. For those staying for the football there may be a little rain, but nothing too serious. Temperatures will be around the 16/17C mark so it’s maybe best to pack a jumper for the evening.
Saturday, June 20
Good news everybody, Saturday looks like being a fairly nice day with just a few clouds and plenty of sun, and temperatures ranging from 12-18C.
Sunday, June 21
Lewis Capaldi had better pack the suncream - it’s going to be a beautiful day on Sunday with blue skies and temperatures peaking at a very un-Scottish 22C.
