THOUSANDS ATTEND MUSIC FESTIVAL IN BRISTOL
Bristol's biggest music festival has returned, bringing a splash of colour to the city's music scene.
Thousands of music fans flocked to Ashton Court on Saturday to hear music from headliners Camelphat and Rudimental and enjoy the sound of Groove Armada and Felix Joy.
Delays on roads surrounding Ashton Court were expected on Sunday as revellers made their way back to the site, festivals leaders said.
Organisers have again put on the Love Bus, a shuttle bus picking music fans up from selected sites across the city.
Last year, more than 55,000 festival-goers attended the music-packed bank holiday weekend.
For the 2024 bash, organisers have introduced stricter rules around illegal drugs to reduce the harm to anyone going.
There are educational stalls, and festival-goers were sent information to read before they attended.
Back-of-house testing on seized drugs is taking place and messages are being sent via social media of anything that "causes concern".
On Sunday, fans can look forward to hearing The Streets and a show of "cinematic audio-visual excellence" from Sub Focus presents Evolve, with only a handful of these performances set to take place in the UK.
