Fancy Dress Friday has become a tradition at T in the Park, whether the outfits have been bought or made, everyone enjoys a bit of random dressing up!
In 2011 we had the 80s retro theme and in 2010 we had a suggested theme of ‘The Mad Hatter’s T Party.’
For 2012 the theme has still to be decided but look out for the all important vote on the T in the Park Facebook/Twitter and eshot the T Lady.
