The gates to this year’s Glastonbury Festival have opened – with revellers scrambling to find the best camping spots.
A brass band played as organiser Emily Eavis led the countdown for the start of the world-famous music event.
However, arriving alongside the army of campers at Worthy Farm in Pilton, Somerset, could be scattered showers, forecasters warn.
Festival-goers have been told to expect “mostly warm, dry and settled” weather for the next five days of the world-famous music festival.
However, scattered showers could begin from day one and last until the end of the weekend, according to the Met Office.
