Catfish And The Bottlemen and Bastille are among the bands performing at the second day of Scotland’s biggest music festival on Saturday.

Around 50,000 music fans are expected to attend each day at the TRNSMT festival which takes place on Glasgow Green from July 12-14.

The event kicked off on Friday with performances from acts including Mabel, Years And Years, Gerry Cinnamon and headliner Stormzy.

There was uncertainty over the rapper’s appearance after his flight was delayed for two hours on Friday.

However he arrived in time to perform after being given a police escort to Glasgow Green.

He posted a video on his Instagram stories of his vehicle being escorted to the festival site by police motorcycles, joking that he is “going up in the world” and is like “the Queen”.

Appearing on stage around 15 minutes later than scheduled to close the first day of the festival, he told fans: “We’re going to have a legendary night.

“I don’t ever want to forget this.

“This is my first time headlining a festival in Scotland so I want to make it unforgettable.”

Opening with Know Me From, he played new single Crown and and also covered Someone You Loved by Lewis Capaldi, who is due to appear at the festival on Sunday.
