Thousands of tickets for next year's T in the Park festival are due to go on sale on Friday.

The tickets for the event at Balado in Kinross-shire are being sold at 2009 prices for a limited period, organisers said.

The festival, headlined by Kasabian, will take place on 9 - 11 July 2010.

Last year's festival saw 85,000 fans enjoy acts by headliners Blur, Kings of Leon, the Killers and Franz Ferdinand. Tickets will go on sale at 0900 GMT.

Ticket prices range from £145 for concerts on Saturday and Sunday to £180, which includes camping from Thursday.

A spokeswoman for T in the Park said it was the second year organisers had released a second batch of tickets in December.

"We offered some at Christmas time last year without putting prices up and people seemed to like it," she said.

The final round of tickets will be released early in 2010, but at an increased price.
