The music is underway at the second day of Scotland’s biggest music festival, T in the Park, with Avicii, Jessie J and George Ezra among the big names due to appear.
Tens of thousands of revellers descended on Strathallan Castle estate in Perthshire yesterday for the three-day event featuring some of musicâs top acts.
Kasabian, David Guetta, Sam Smith, Mark Ronson and Fatboy Slim took to the stage last night as organisers hailed the âincredibleâ atmosphere.
Dan Haggis from English indie outfit The Wombats said: âScottish crowds are just second to none.
âAnywhere weâve been in the whole world, Scottish crowds are just like over the top.â
Festival director Geoff Ellis said: âWeâre delighted with how everything is going so far. Thereâs an incredible atmosphere onsite.â
A crowd of about 85,000 is expected today and Sunday, and Police Scotland advised day trippers to plan ahead and follow event signs to avoid travel delays.
Todayâs line-up includes Alt-J and Twin Atlantic on the Radio 1 stage, with the Libertines, Labrinth and The Script taking to the main stage.
Noel Gallagherâs High Flying Birds will close the festival tomorrow evening.
Organisers DF Concerts struck a deal to shift the 2015 festival following health and safety concerns about an underground oil pipeline at nearby Balado, where it had been held for 18 years.
Local councillors approved the plan in May despite opposition from some residents and environmental groups who expressed concern for ospreys at Strathallan.
Concerns were raised about traffic arrangements for the event, and the potential for anti-social behaviour.
Police Scotland last night reported 12 arrests.
Superintendent Colin Brown said: âThe vast majority of people have enjoyed themselves and taken our advice and behaved responsibly.
âHowever, a small number have ignored that advice and have been dealt with. Our advice is simple – look after yourselves and your friends, behave and have a good time.”
