“Can’t wait to return to Glasgow Green next Summer to headline TRNSMT,” he said in a press release. “I’ll be playing songs from ‘Definitely Maybe’ as well as some solo stuff. See you there.”
The following night will see the return of Gerry Cinnamon to the festival, marking his first headline spot there since 2019. Speaking about his upcoming performance, he said: “Get hounded on the daily to do TRNSMT again, well hound no more. On Saturday July 13, there’s going to be a big lovely summer sing song. See you there.”
Calvin Harris will close out the festival on Sunday, July 14.

Speaking about the 2024 edition of the festival, its director, Geoff Ellis said it was a “dream lineup” for fans, adding: “After welcoming one of the best crowds TRNSMT has ever seen in 2023 and we can’t wait to have everyone back for the seventh year of incredible live music.”
