First look at TRNSMT 2025 as festival unveils new layout
Scotland's biggest music festival has unveiled a new layout ahead of its annual takeover of Glasgow Green. Headline acts at TRNSMT 2025 include Snow Patrol, Gracie Abrams, 50 Cent, and Fontaines D.C. A wide range of musical acts, including JADE, Myles Smith and Tom Walker, Arthur Hill and The View frontman Kyle Falconer, have also been announced for the three-day event this summer. The new site map, which will welcome music lovers from Friday, July 11, reveals that the East Entrance is now for Accessible ticket holders only, and all General Admission ticket holders must enter through the West Entrance. VIP ticket holders are asked to arrive through the VIP entrance as they have done in previous years. TRNSMT via Supplied TRNSMT's new layout for 2025. BBC Radio One Dance is bringing back its much-loved Boogie Bar to feature some of the best dance music at Glasgow Green. Among those includes Jaguar, Arielle Free and Charlie Hedges, alongside homegrown talent Hayley Zalassi and La La, with Irish DJ singer-songwriter, JAZZY. Revellers can visit the Rockstar Energy Drink Bar, Pepsi Max, Jägermeister's Jägerplatz, Smirnoff Bar, as well as Three's 'Charge and Vibe' and a second charging station. Also returning will be the Hangout, the home of secret sets, an over-18s space which will host Bongo's Bingo and Drag-aoke. The smallest stage at the festival hosted one of the biggest moments last year when Travis stepped out to perform their back catalogue to a small crowd. This year, there are gaps in the schedule, suggesting fans will be treated to special secret performances once again. A festival spokesperson said: 'We're buzzing to share the official TRNSMT site map with fans – it means we're one step closer to gates opening! 'It's the perfect tool to start planning your weekend, from finding your favourite stage to checking out bars, food spots, and all the key information to make the most of your festival experience. 'We can't wait to welcome everyone to Glasgow Green very soon!' The organisers also revealed festival-goers can plan their weekend of music with TRNSMT's app, allowing them to create a personalised schedule of their favourite artists set times. The festival is set to take place from July 11 to 13, with day tickets starting from £89. 50 Cent The Script Wet Leg Jamie Webster Confidence Man Twin Atlantic The Royston Club Calum Bowie Tanner Adell Good Neighbours Arthur Hill NOFUN!

On Instagram, the actress shared photos of the impressive Dublin mansion build project she's been tackling. Arianna captioned: "A little home update... It feels SO surreal to say I have a home?! "In just a few weeks, we've done the outside render, started to tile the bathrooms and wardrobes are all started. "SO happy with how smoothly everything has gone so far. "4 short months and I will be an Irish girly!" One follower commented: "Beautiful... well done & well deserved. x" Another added: "You really did that!!!!" In February 2024, Arianna had shared an Instagram post revealing she was embarking on her "first ever build project". She launched her multi-million pound Mars The Label brand from her dad's living room in 2015 with just £3,000, money her late mum had left her. Coronation Street actress Arianna Ajtar reveals she's had a boob job as she posts from hospital after surgery She created the designs herself and now has a huge team working alongside her from her headquarters in Bolton. Arianna said previously: "We are now an eight figure annual turnover brand, which is honestly wild when you bring it all the way back to starting with less than £3,000 in my dad's living room. "We've come such a long way, and I've learnt so many lessons. "I can't even believe it myself to be honest. Sometimes I sit there and look at the sales on the website and can't believe that genuinely it's mine." Last month, Arianna went Instagram official with her boyfriend after teasing the relationship on social media. He modelled some of the items from her range but she kept his identity a secret by cropping out his face. She's now posted a cosy photo with her other half on her Instagram story. The snap showed him with one arm around her as she snaps a selfie. 5 She went Instagram official with her boyfriend last month Credit: Instagram
