Tying in with its Desert Island Disco theme, festival-goers will take part in a glitter ball world record attempt

Radio 1 DJ Rob da Bank said: "As ever the bill isn't about one big act or one type of music - it's a patchwork of music, comedy, entertainment, wellness and food for kids of all ages."

The festival, which has been running for 14 years, has a Desert Island Disco theme and runs until Sunday.

This year a new "sister" event will also be held in the West Midlands in August.
