Sustainability
We are committed to reducing our environmental impact whilst having a boogie at Rockstar Energy presents TRNSMT.
As proud signatories of the Green Nation Sustainability Charter, we're here to preserve the live music experience for generations to come. Being Scotland's biggest music festival, we're on a mission to use our creativity to drive positive social and environmental change. We’ve already exceeded major targets in the charter, including:
-
Since 2022, we have been investing in sustainable biodiesel for generators and on-site vehicles, which produces 90% lower emissions than regular diesel.
- Between 2022 and 2023, reducing emissions from energy by a further 10% through efficiency measures.
- Recycling 66% of our waste in 2023, a 1% increase on 2022.
- Not sending any waste to landfill for the past three years.
- 89% of traders last year offered a meat-free option, reducing food emissions.
- Worked with local organisations including Advanced Clothing Solutions, R:evolve, Police Scotland Youth Volunteers, and Glasgow Eco Trust to help us achieve our sustainability goals.
We're also members of Vision:2025, an amazing network of over 500 outdoor events and businesses that are taking serious climate action. As members, we're all about reducing our climate impact, measuring our emissions annually, and working to share experiences and develop best practices in the events industry.
Sustainable Fashion
Shopping sustainably creates better working conditions for people and the planet. Pick up a vintage polo, have a game of who wore it better with yer pal, or simply choose better quality materials - our fashion choices make a real difference.
Travel
Travel home cheap and cheerfully, with trains, free bus travel for under 22’s and loads of coaches – it’s a no brainer! Let’s play our part by making sustainable travel choices.
Reduce Plastic Waste
Stay hydrated and help reduce plastic waste. We've set up free to use water points across the site where you can refill your bottle again and again. It's super simple… bring a soft or collapsible water bottle and use our water points to keep your bottle filled.
Quick note: Make sure your refillable water bottle is made of soft, collapsible material and holds 500ml or less. We have reusable water bottles available to purchase here. Forgot your water bottle? We have reusable water bottles available to purchase at the merch stand located on-site!
