IRISH hip hop group Kneecap have announced a new Glasgow headline show at the O2 Academy on 8th July.
The announcement comes after it was confirmed that they would no longer be performing at TRNSMT Festival due to “concerns expressed by the police about safety at the event”.
On their social media pages, the band said: “Glasgow has always been a huge city for us. We’ve played there many many times, with no issues – ever. Make of that what you will.”
“To try to make up for it, we will be at your O2 Academy on Tuesday July 8th.”
The new gig will take place in the city just days before they were scheduled to perform at the Glasgow Green festival.
Presale tickets will go live at 10am on Thursday via the band’s WhatsApp channel. O2 Priority customers will also be able to access presale tickets at the same time.
General sale tickets will go live from 10am on Saturday and can be accessed via the venue’s website.
