Police Warn T In The Park Festivalgoers Not To Take Drugs

Fans attending this weekend's T in the Park festival in Scotland have been told not to take drugs.

Local police have also urged festivalgoers to prepare for possible bad weather and advised them to sleep with their tickets hidden from view.

The warnings form part of a wide-ranging list of safety guidelines issued to those attending the event, which begins on Friday (July 10).

Drug amnesty bins, which allow people to dispose of drugs without prosecution, will greet festivalgoers as they arrive at the site in Balado, police said.

Ch Supt Craig Suttie told the BBC fans should plan their trip to the festival ahead of arrival in order to maximise enjoyment.

As previously reported on Gigwise, T in the Park will be headlined by The Killers, Kings Of Leon and Blur.

I'd quite like to be in charge of the drug amnesty bins, although I don't imagine they'll get much in there.

Yes I was thinking of taking loads of drugs to the festival to dump them in the bins. Will there also be ones for my jewelery, watch, phone, wallet,..........
