Arctic Monkeys have become the first headline act to be confirmed for T In The Park 2014, and say they are ‘looking forward to a great night with their Scottish fans’.
“We’re thrilled to announce Arctic Monkeys as our first headliners for T In The Park 2014,” director Geoff Ellis remarks. “After this year’s fantastic 20th year celebrations, we asked our audience who they’d like to see at next year’s festival and Arctic Monkeys came top of the poll, so we’re really pleased to be able to confirm them for T In The Park.”
Arctic Monkeys will perform at Kinross in Scotland over the weekend of July 11th-13th next year. Biffy Clyro are currently considered a likely tip to join the Sheffield band as the bill starts to take shape.
“When they take to the stage in Glasgow this week they’ll prove exactly why they’re one of the greatest live acts around, and I’m sure we can look forward to another phenomenal set at T In The Park,” Ellis adds. “We have many more fantastic acts in store which we’ll announce next year, and can’t wait to see you all again in July.”
