Full list of items allowed and forbidden to bring into TRNSMT 2025
From chairs to umbrellas to water bottles, here's everything you can and can't bring to TRNSMT.
One of Scotland's most popular music events, this year's TRNSMT festival is just around the corner. Music legends from across the globe are due to take to the stage in Glasgow Green, including 50 Cent, Biffy Clyro and Snow Patrol.
The festival, which will take place from Friday, July 11 to Sunday, July 13 this year, usually sees a whopping 150,000 music lovers descend on the festival grounds in Glasgow city centre, with around 50,000 people attending each day of the event. The TRNSMT festival has been running since 2017, and is widely considered a replacement for the iconic discontinued festival T in the Park, which last took place in 2016.
But as festival goers prepare for the big weekend, questions are rising on which items they are or are not allowed to bring into the TRNSMT grounds this year. So, what items are prohibited by the Scots festival, and which are okay to bring in?
Here's everything you need to know.
Which items can you bring into TRNSMT?
The TRNSMT website lists several items you are allowed, and are even encouraged to bring with you to the event.
These include:
A bag smaller than A4 paper
While large bags aren't allowed, any small bags that aren't bigger than a piece of A4 paper are allowed on the festival site.
Bank card or contactless device
The festival is cashless so attendees will need to bring a bank card or contactless device.
All types of contactless cards and devices will be accepted by traders, bars and the festival's funfair.
Collapsible water bottle 500ml or smaller
Bringing an empty soft collapsible water bottle or pouch which is 500ml or smaller is recommended, so you can refill this at the free water points across the festival throughout the day.
If you don't already have one, some cheap options are available, such as this one from Amazon, which retails at £9.99.
Alternatively, this Decathlon option from Argos is available for £12.
Portable phone chargers
Power banks are also allowed into TRNSMT, so you can ensure your phone has enough juice to contact your friends if you get separated.
One top-rated power bank is currently 40 per cent off on Amazon, now costing £14.99, and is available in either black or white.
For those looking for a brighter portable charger, Argos offers this discounted one for £22.39 which comes in black, blue or pink.
Ear plugs
Ear plugs are an often forgotten essential for a festival, but it's vital to protect your ears from the booming base and cheering crowds.
While Loops are a popular brand which are available on Amazon for £19.95, Debenhams offers a box of 200 foam ear plugs, currently on offer for £34.19.
Small travel size sunscreen, lip balm and makeup, small cameras, sunglasses, wipes, and hand sanitiser can all also be brought into the festival.
TRNSMT's website also explains that if you need to bring medicine, it must be clearly labelled in the original box or container and you should only take enough with you for one day.
If you use a syringe, you should take it to a first aid point where you can dispose of it safely.
Which items are prohibited from TRNSMT?
Single use disposable vapes
bags or rucksacks bigger than A4 paper
glass (including perfumes)
metal or hard plastic water bottles
food or drink/liquids even if unopened
drugs
flares (you will be charged by the Police)
smoke canisters (you will be charged by the Police)
chairs
professional cameras
selfie sticks
umbrellas
weapons
frisbees/boomerangs
hi-vis tabards or jackets.
The festival has announced that CCTV and Police Detection Dogs will be in use at entrances and across the festival site, and those attending can expect to be searched and 'patted down' upon entry.

Tasha Ghouri swears by product she's used since before Love Island
We initially fell in love with Tasha Ghouri when she made history as Love Island's first - and currently only - deaf contestant, stealing our hearts all over again in the 2024 season of Strictly Come Dancing. Now, three years since first hitting our screens, Tasha has even bigger dreams of proving that 'disability is beautiful'. The 26-year-old and proud cochlear implant user has often showed her 1.4 million followers exactly that, regularly sharing her go-to makeup looks and skincare picks. And this week, we sat down with the beauty enthusiast to talk about her summer essentials, favourite brands and future career goals as part of our desert island beauty series. For Tasha, the one thing she won't leave the house without is a polished brow (a girl after my own heart) - and to achieve that snatched, freshly-laminated look, she uses the Eyebrow Sculpt from minimalist beauty brand, Refy . 'I always like to have my brows done,' she said. 'That's probably the one beauty product I couldn't live without.' Liz Earle launches huge skincare bundle worth £191 for under £70 but you'll need to be quick Argos knocks 50% off four-seater garden patio set with parasol ahead of heatwave Tasha, who's become known for her effortless, fresh-faced beauty, has long been a fan of the 'clean girl' aesthetic, which is something Refy as a brand embodies. 'I've used Refy since before Love Island,' she explained. 'Their products are super, super clean girl and that's the vibe I really go for. I like a natural kind of glam.' Priced at £18, Refy Brow Sculpt is a wax-gel hybrid that works to sculpt, shape, and set eyebrows for a 12-hour hold. Flake-free with a zero-residue finish, it's sweatproof and waterproof, and was recently reformulated to be even better, infused with nourishing ingredients like Provitamin B5 and Glycerin. Wax-gel hybrid to sculpt, shape, and set eyebrows for a 12-hour hold It's racked up a near-perfect 4.9 star rating from shoppers, based on more than 3,800 reviews, which is a real testament to its adoration. One shopper commented: 'Brow sculpt has been the best product for my brows . I love it. I tell everyone to use it. It's perfect for creating that laminated look and they don't move all day. I'd never use anything else now.' Another added: 'This is my favourite product for my eyebrows, once I style them and brush them they stay like that all day.' However, while the product was reformulated, the applicator remained the same and some users haven't got along with it as well as others, commenting: 'I really like this product. I use it every day, it keeps my eyebrows in place from morning to night. However, I can't get a result I like with the integrated brushes so I use another one.' Refy's Brow Sculpt isn't just useful for taming brows, though. Tasha admits the Refy Brow Sculpt has come in handy for more than one beauty emergency. 'If I have greasy hair, I can just use the glue to slick my hair back.' Hack well and truly noted. Similar products come in the form of Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze Gel, which is £24, and according to Space NK, has sold more than 100 this week alone. Like Refy, it's a hybrid wax-gel formula that lifts and locks the brows in place while increasing volume. For a more affordable alternative, e.l.f. Brow Laminating Gel has more than 16,000 ratings on the Boots website, costs £8 and has been described as 'e.l.f's strongest hold yet for nailing that laminated brow look'. While Refy sits comfortably somewhere in the middle of budget and high end in terms of pricing, Tasha's makeup kit is a real mix of high street heroes, cult favourites and premium beauty. 'I use Refy, L'Oréal Paris, Rimmel, Maybelline, Rare Beauty, Armani - their Eye is incredible - and Charlotte Tilbury. It's a complete mix of different brands. I'm lucky to be in a position where I get gifted beautiful makeup and get to play around with it.' When it comes to her current go-to products, though, Refy tops the list, particularly their cream bronzer. She said: 'My favourite bronzer is the Refy one as well, I use shade tan, especially if I'm a bit more tanned, that's the one I like to use. 'Blushes I use a completely different mix, the Armani blushes are really really nice, a nice cheek tint. I recently discovered Morphe. They have a really nice new triple palette , I just used that on holiday and it added a really nice glow. And then if I want a more subtle blush I like Charlotte Tilbury Pinkgasm .' It's no surprise that Tasha holds Refy close to her heart. She's long admired founder Jess Hunt, both for her brilliant product formulations and her commitment to real inclusivity. 'I've actually been a fan of Jess Hunt from day one, so I followed her for many, many years. She's one influencer I've looked up to who's been in this industry for such a long time. I remember when she launched Refy and thought, 'She's going to nail this.' 'But what was so great about the brand was the diversity. That's what I really love. It wasn't all the same people, everyone was different. I think she used people with disabilities, and I think that's so lovely. Refy knows what their brand stands for and it's about showing your beauty, not hiding it.' But while Refy might be doing it right, Tasha is candid about how much work still needs to be done in the industry. 'There definitely still needs to be more movement,' she said. 'Even on brand trips, I never see anyone with any kind of disability. It's actually really sad. There's a big space in the industry for that, but it's often overlooked or treated as a tick box. True inclusivity means continuing the momentum, not just doing it once.' As a beauty enthusiast and disability advocate, Tasha's dream is to be the face of a makeup brand. 'I'd love to be the face of Charlotte Tilbury one day. Or Refy, I think that would be so lovely as I've used them for so long. I can see myself doing that. Or a skincare brand like Aveeno. Just to show that disability is beautiful because we need to be included so much more. 'There's still such a stigma around what beauty is, that it has this perfect, gorgeous look when everyone is beautiful in their own way. I feel that it still needs to break down those barriers and push beyond that.'

Whilst you wait, here's five recommendations for series that are just as good summer escapes. With over 200 billion views on BookTok, a steamy holiday romance and adventure is guaranteed to be yours with these addictive and trending reads that will get your heart racing! From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout The winner of Goodreads Choice Award for Readers' Favourite Romance in 2020, this dark romance questions gender roles and duty, as protagonist Poppy between maidenhood and fighting to defend her Kingdom. Full of vampires, monsters, gods, and a steamy enemies-to-lovers trope with a golden-eyed guard, it's no surprise this series continues to be raved about. READ MORE: Romance is in the air as new London bookshop selling only 'spicy novels' opens From Blood and Ash boast nearly 69,000 reviews on Goodreads and is rated 4.22 out of five - any Romantasy reader would like those chances! Phantasma: The Wicked Games trilogy by Kaylie smith Said to be a medley of ACOTAR and BookTok favourite Caraval, Phantasma is the first in a trilogy of a dark fantasy adventure. With an intense romance, a morally grey heart-throb and unexpected plot twists, Phantasma is a brilliant choice for those who loved Rebecca Yarros' Fourth Wing, Nisha J. Tuli and Carissa Broadbent. Rated more than four stars on Amazon and Goodreads, the complex characters and inescapable tension is sure to set your summer alight. Godkiller, Fallen Gods trilogy by Hannah Kaner Godkiller is a personal favourite, with brilliant world building and imagery right from page one. Kaner's characters are lovable, wholesome and total feminist icons. Full of assassins, gods and handsome knights, this epic quest is a definite page-turner and uniquely written. Furthermore, Kaner's world is queer-casual and here to stay as an instant Sunday Times Bestseller - the Daily Mail calling the first instalment: "A wonderful, gritty, explosively violent, and beautifully realised debut". It is also available on QueerLit. Ember in The Ashes, Ember Quartet series by Sabaa Tahir The Young Adult fantasy series is smart social commentary inspired on Ancient Rome's Centuria, and follows the character arc of a young Laia, a girl from a hunted minority group, and a leading soldier named Elias as their paths cross and entwine as they fight the corruption of their empire. If you loved Divergent and The Hunger Games as a teen, this resurgence of Dystopian literature will consume you - a perfect choice for those who love Fantasy just as much as Romance. I couldn't put them down!
