Video: Muddy start to Leeds Festival
Thousands of music fans flocked to Leeds Festival as the three-day event got underway.
Heavy rain at the Bramham Park site last night meant some muddy areas underfoot but it did not deter festival-goers, many of whom were excited to see headliner Eminem on Sunday.
Eminem’s last performance at Leeds Festival was 12 years ago in 2001 when Leeds turned three years old - this year the festival turns 15.
