Summary
Kneecap's planned performance at the Glasgow festival TRNSMT has been canceled due to police concerns about safety. The Northern Irish band will instead perform at the O2 Academy on July 8th, despite their recent cancellations at other events like Germany’s Hurricane Festival and Cornwall’s Eden Project. Kneecap headlined Wide Awake festival in London last weekend without issues, but Mo Chara faced legal trouble after displaying a flag during a performance.
