Scots revellers have expressed fears that TRNSMT could be cancelled as coronavirus fears continue to grow.
Six people in Scotland have tested positive for the disease which has already claimed the lives of thousands across the globe.
Boris Johnson recently announced plans to prevent a mass spread of Covid-19 across the UK, which includes proposals to ban mass public gatherings if cases grow in numbers.
Now Scots music fans are worried that one gathering that could be under threat under the plan is TRNSMT festival, which is due to take place on Glasgow Green between July 10-12.
Around 50,000 music fans are expected to descend on the Glasgow park each day of this year’s festival.
The Courtneers, Liam Gallagher and Lewis Capaldi are all set to headlines over the three days.
Some of the festival’s punters have speculated that the event could be cancelled as fears over coronavirus continue to grow.
One person wrote: “Here imagine TRNSMT got cancelled because of the coronavirus.”
Another said: “If TRNSMT gets cancelled I will cry for weeks - this is the first years I get to see nearly everyone I love.”
A third person said: “TRNSMT could be cancelled due to coronavirus? No chance is my summer getting ruined.”
Scottish Health Secretary Jeane Freeman said that Scotland is well-prepared for significant outbreak of the virus.
She said on Wednesday: “People have a vital role to play in helping us contain any outbreak by following the latest health and travel advice, and following basic hygiene precautions, such as washing hands frequently, not touching their face and covering their nose and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing.”
DF Concerts, who organise the festival, have been approached for comment.
