For Queen fans who missed out on their UK gigs this year, this one is most definitely for you.
The legendary band, now fronted by Adam Lambert, will be topping the TRNSMT bill this summer, appearing on Friday 6 July at the Glasgow Green event.
They will join Texas, The Darkness and The Temperance Movement to perform at the festival.
Original Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor have been performing with American Idol star Lambert on tour for around six years and this announcement is super exciting as it will be their only UK show outside of three sold out London concerts this year.
Geoff Ellis, head of organisers DF Concerts, said: ‘We are absolutely delighted to announce the addition of Queen + Adam Lambert to the TRNSMT line-up as the final headliner across the two weekends.
‘As bona fide music legends, Queen + Adam Lambert’s TRNSMT show promises to be a spectacular highlight in Scotland’s music calendar this summer, I’m sure the atmosphere will be electric when they step on stage.’
The main festival weekend for TRNSMT will occur over three days from 29 June to 1 July, with two further shows taking place the following weekend on 6 and 8 July.
Stereophonics, Liam Gallagher, Arctic Monkeys and The Killers have already been named as headline performers at the festival.
Around 120,000 music fans attended the inaugural TRNSMT festival in 2017 when Radiohead, Kasabian and Biffy Clyro performed.
