Blur have been confirmed as the Sunday night Main Stage headliner for this summer's T in the Park.

Kings of Leon
The band will return to T in the Park for the first time since 1999, having also played in the King Tut's tent at the very first T in the Park festival, when it was held at Strathclyde Park in 1994.

The four piece group who reformed at the end of last year are the latest act to be added to the three-day Balado festival which will have over 180 artists playing over 11 stages. Joining the the previously confirmed Kings of Leon, Snow Patrol, and Katy Perry.

T in the Park boss Geoff Ellis is quoted as saying, "It's great to have such an influential British band. When we heard there was a chance of them reforming, we were sniffing about because it was something we wanted to be part of. They are iconic and legends. They are one of those bands you talk about in the same breath as The Jam and The Smiths."

Tickets are not yet on sale.

T in the Park will take place at Balado, Scotland on Friday 10th to Sunday 12th July.
