T In The Park organiser Geoff Ellis has confirmed the festival will continue at Strathallan Castle in 2016 despite the, in some cases, serious teething problems which were experienced this summer.
The event was forced to move from its long-term home in Balado this year, and settled at the Strathallan estate despite the site being immediately met by opposition due to conservation concerns.
When it was finally given the go-ahead, many ticket-holders complained of a logistical nightmare in and around the location – just one of the problems addressed by Ellis in a lengthy statement which begins:
“We all love and care about T in the Park and we’re genuinely sorry that the first year at our new site didn’t go as well as we hoped for some of you.”
“We always strive to create a fun-filled, enjoyable, safe weekend for everyone and my whole team is focused on making the changes needed to fix the issues and to ensure that T in the Park is a festival that we can all be proud of once again in 2016 and beyond.”
“We are confident that T in the Park will work well at Strathallan Castle for many years to come, but the lessons we’ve learned during this difficult transitional year alongside your valued and constructive feedback will make sure that we do much better in 2016.”
