TRNSMT 2026 is planning to show the Scotland's World Cup Match against Morocco on Friday 19th June.

The festival - which takes place on Glasgow Green - has announced Scotland as it's "fourth headliner" with a "Main Stage World Cup takeover" confirmed for the event.

After securing their place in the international tournament for the first time in almost 30 years, Steve Clarke's national team are set to take on the North African team on the same day the festival kicks off, but festival organisers have been busy working behind the scenes to ensure ticket holders can stay on site to watch the match live from 11pm after Richard Ashcroft's headline set.

"We’re buzzing to announce that we’ll be showing the SCOTLAND V MOROCCO game LIVE from our Main Stage on Friday 19th June, straight after Richard Ashcroft, kicking off at 11pm*. So you can 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."

Geoff Ellis, CEO of DF Concerts said: “This is going to be a historic moment for the festival and one we are incredibly excited about, it’s sure to be a night that will live long in the memory.

“I couldn’t think of a better addition to the Main Stage lineup than the Scotland national team, and showing the game will create a unique atmosphere, bringing the Hampden roar to Glasgow Green.

“Giving our fans the chance to see their favourite bands and then watch the game with thousands of Scotland fans in a World Cup is the stuff dreams are made of, and it shows exactly how TRNSMT is much more than a music festival.

“We’ll be providing the most exciting place to watch the game in the country with our screens even higher than Scott McTominay’s bicycle kick.

“I want to thank Glasgow City Council and partners for their continued collaboration. We can’t wait to show the world that yes sir, TRNSMT can boogie.”
