Mr Ellis, the festival director, said: “Overall it’s been a great first year at Strathallan the bands were brilliant, the site looked wonderful and we know that the majority of people have had a fantastic time.
“We also know traffic queues coming in and out of the drop-off points have left some people frustrated and we apologise for this because we obviously want the experience to be positive for everyone from start to finish.
“A combination of things have contributed to the delays, including the weather, but traffic is moving today and we do also need people to be patient.
“Years of infrastructure and tried and tested plans at Balado means that our audience is used to a very quick exit from the site – which is not the norm for most other major events around the country.
“We’ll take learnings from this year and will work on improving the times for the future. We thank fans for their co-operation.”
