Some of us have made a last minute decision to go for Saturday this year. Anyone know what the script is with travel? Id imagine most coaches will be full by now. Don't want to fork out for a taxi either. Any advice?

Ive not been to T for a good few years, but you used to be able to get a bus at St james center without booking. Basically you qould que up (queues were very big though) and they had lots of shuttle busses.......unless they ditched this, its the easiest cheapest way :thumbsup:
I'll have a look cheers. Trying to avoid asking people for a lift. Ideally looking to come back to Edinburgh once Calvin Harris is finished on Saturday night.
Drive to Crieff via Perth. Shuttle bus from there I think. Will check and confirm tomorrow morning.
I have a parking pass. :-)
Train to Gleneagles then shuttle bus for a fiver which takes 20 minutes.
Here is the info you are looking for
Please note that there are no suitable walking routes to or from the event. Local residents attending the event should NOT risk walking on the side of the road or through fields. The safest and best travel option for locals is a shuttle bus service being provided by Citylink.
If you are travelling from Auchterarder, Aberuthven, Gleneagles Station, Crieff, Muthill, Braco, Greenloaning and Blackford you can book and pay for tickets for these shuttle buses, provided by Scottish Citylink. In order to deliver the appropriate service and guarantee your space on board, Scottish Citylink advise booking tickets well in advance of the event.
Please visit http://www.citylink.co.uk/e_tparklocal.php for further info, to check availability and book tickets in advance. All local shuttle buses will drop off and pick up at the T in the Park Bus Station to the east of the site; a very short distance from the entrance to the festival. Pre booking is advisable by 3rd July.

Thanks guys think we're gonna go with the CityLink from Regent Street though as nobody is willing to drive for some reason haha.
Coaches will take you to the bus station area at the east end of the site, closest to the main stage with Radio 1, Slam and King Tuts further away. enjoy.Quote:

In the news that someone stole a cash machine. Not entirely sure how that went down, ****ing hilarious though 😂
That led to NO cash being available on site yesterday, all cash machines were roped off and guarded by 2 police officers.Quote:

That's a really special kind of stupid. I like a drink as much as anyone and ingested more than my fair share of other substances in my younger days but the state some people seem determined to get into is ridiculous.
I'm quite happy to continue to give it a miss for the forseeable.
Very muddy today.
There were plenty other cash machines available in various locations. What was annoying though was the card payment system crashed so you couldn't use cards for a good few hours.Quote:
