The TRNSMT music festival has landed in Glasgow during a weekend-long heatwave.

Scotland's biggest festival takes place on the city's Glasgow Green over three days, with up to 50,000 people expected each day.

The headliners are 50 Cent on Friday, rockers Biffy Clyro on Saturday and Snow Patrol on Sunday.

The thermometer hit 27C in Glasgow on day one with forecasts of even higher temperatures to come over the weekend.
