SCOTLAND’S newest music festival has brought a £10million boost to Glasgow’s economy, according to organisers.

And, with the inaugural event branded “hugely successful”, plans have already began to take shape in bringing TRNSMT back to the city next year. Just over 120,000 people were confirmed to have descended upon Glasgow Green over the weekend as Biffy Clyro were the last act to perform the main stage.

Geoff Ellis, the festival director said: “This has been a hugely successful debut year for TRNSMT and I would like to thank everyone for welcoming the festival in to their hearts with such enthusiasm. I think it’s been in excess of £10 million economic impact for the city, based on previous studies that we’ve done.

“We are already planning for 2018 so watch this space for future transmissions.”

Mr Ellis also thanked the agencies and Glasgow City Council who helped organise the event.

A reported 35,000 people attended the first day of the festival on Friday - enjoting sets from Belle and Sebastian, London Grammar and headliners Radiohead.

A sun-soaked Saturday saw a sold out crowd of 50,000 come to the park with Stormzy and The Kooks performing before Kasabian played the headline slot to the masses.

As well as Biffy Clyro, revellers got to enjoy Twin Atlantic and The 1975 on Sunday.

Police Scotland reported eight arrests over the course of the weekend and commended the good spirits and feel good atmosphere.

Chief Inspector Simon Jeacocke, the event commander for Police Scotland, said: “We’d like to commend everyone who attended TRNSMT festival for their good spirits this weekend.

“Our zero tolerance approach to drugs, increased security presence and thorough bag searches were well received by attendees and everyone’s cooperation meant that people got onsite smoothly every day.”

The Scottish Ambulance Service also said they had no serious injuries to deal with.

A total of 68 people did use the onsite hospital tent for the likes of weather-related issues and pre-existing medical conditions.
