Irish electro rap trio Kneecap have arrived in Glasgow to play a sold-out show at the O2 Academy venue, weeks after being axed from the city’s music festival lineup.
The group’s show sold out in just 80 seconds after TRANSMT festival dropped the act from Friday’s lineup at the annual weekender held on Glasgow Green.
Event organisers said the decision was made “due to concerns expressed by the Police about safety at the event.”
Police Scotland had warned that “a significant policing operation” would be required to manage the headline show on the King Tut’s stage on Friday.
Police Scotland confirmed they have a “proportionate and considered policing plan” for the Glasgow O2 Academy show.
