Revellers camping early for V Festival
Thursday 14th August 2008, 11:42AM BST.
Revellers today began descending on Weston Park for this year’s V Festival.
People began arriving at the site early this morning to start transforming the grounds into a sea of tents.
Gates opened at 11am in a bid to stagger the arrival of the 35,000 cars expected to turn up for the two-day event taking place on Saturday and Sunday.
People were keeping their fingers crossed for good weather for the event.
Around 85,000 music fans are expected and efforts are under way to cope with the traffic jams which clog up surrounding roads each year.
