FOOD FOR EVERYONE
FOOD & DRINK
THE spotlight is on Glasgow Green next weekend as TRNSMT returns with performances from Paolo Nutini, Sam Fender, The Strokes, The Snuts, Wolf Alice and Lewis Capaldi. There will be an impressive line-up from culinary collective Big Feed with an expanded street food presence at the festival across two locations on site.
The food menu is further expanded this year as local favourite Black Rooster Peri Peri is making its TRNSMT debut. The Glasgow based business will be serving its signature Peri Peri chicken from a new custom-made food truck.
Owners Kevin Bell and Michael Kennedy are excited to join the festival: “We speak to our customers all the time and we know that music is a major passion for them. We’ve been keen to get into the festival scene for years but this year – coming out of lockdown and an absolutely unbelievable line-up at cinch presents TRNSMT– just felt like something we couldn’t miss out on.”
Big Feed x cinch presents TRNSMT brings together 20 food and drink traders. There will be the return of Salt n Chilli, a fan favourite, and Duck Street Food – the aromatic duck gyros create some of the biggest queues at Big Feed’s weekend events. Festivalgoers will be able to choose from tacos, bao buns, hot dogs, slow-cooked pulled pork
sandwiches, loaded nachos, buttermilk chicken and freshly ground coffee. Organisers have confirmed the full lineup of traders and dishes for the festival. Here’s what to look out for beside the King Tut’s Stage and in front of the big wheel.
