Organisers at Scottish music festival T in the Park have announced the return of Fancy Dress Friday, an event first held at the event in 2008.

Last year, T in the Park bosses invited fans to arrive in wacky fancy dress of any kind – from superhero get-ups to historical costumes – to turn Friday into the most colourful day of the festival.

They said: “Whatever you do, make sure you pull out all the stops! T in the Parkers always do it best so show us what the festival means to you.”

The result was a range of costumes, spanning from the laughable to the outrageous, with colourful wigs, flags and face paints being par for the course throughout the day.

In 2009, the festival – which is held in Balado, Kinross-shire from July 10 to 12 – will welcome back fancy dress revellers in style. The ‘T Lady’ will be on hand to seek out the funniest and most inspired costumes, and the winners will receive VIP passes to T in the Park 2010.

What’s more, organisers will also be throwing a party in the Silent Disco tent on Friday July 10 from 1 to 5pm to involve participants and find the best costumes.

Friday’s line-up at the festival promises some acclaimed international acts, including Kings of Leon, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, as well as Scottish favourites Franz Ferdinand, The View and Idlewild.

Together, the mix of great music and fancy dress fun is set to make Friday at this year’s T in the Park one that everyone at the festival will remember.

Get your costume from Miss Saucy and make sure you don’t miss out!!
