With no acts confirmed, the festival has already sold tens of thousands of tickets for next year off the back of its strong reputation, and 5,000 extra ticket would help satisfy some of the over-subscribed the demand for the tickets available.

Thursday access is wanted to help ease any potential traffic problems, by helping spread arrivals at the Balado site over a longer timeframe.

Perth and Kinross Council will consider these requests tomorrow.
