The number 1 music festival in Scotland, T In The Park, is going all retro for their Fancy Dress theme this year. In line with many other events, such as Bestival, this crowd pleasing festival has decided to really push fancy dress this year. And the chosen theme this year is ‘Retro 80’s’. A great choice in our opinion! Add to this the fact that the festival will feature none other than the brilliant Mumford & Sons, and we think T in the Park is on to a winning formula!

The festival is due to run between 8th to 10th July, and we’re crossing our fingers for good weather for the party goers!

If you are heading down to Balado at the weekend then can we make a few suggestions:

1.       Take a Mac! – As beautiful as Scotland is, the weather is of course unpredictable, so don’t forget to pack a good waterproof Mac.

2.       Get some BOOTS! – Yes, a good pair of wellington boots are an absolute must. A certain employee of All Fancy Dress once went to Glastonbury without a pair of wellingtons, and let’s just say he regretted it! Traipsing through mud in a pair of trainers is not much fun!

3.       Take some Wet Wipes- after 2 days of partying without access to a shower, you’ll really appreciate this little luxury.

4.       And of course, don’t forget to take an absolutely brilliant 80’s themed fancy dress costume. If you’re looking for inspiration check out our fun range of Ladies 80’s Costumes and Mens 80’s Fancy Dress.

Above all have fun at Balado folks!
