Festival gates open at 11.30 with first bands scheduled for 12.30pm. Festival goers are advised to get there early to avoid queues and to remember that searches are in operation to prevent alcohol being bought onto the site.

Set in the stunning grounds of Wollaton Hall, the festival has grown to become one of the region's biggest music events, attracting around 20,000 people of all ages.

For those travelling home by train, please check with your train operator for any engineering works affecting late night travel.
