Tens of thousands of ticket holders have descended onto the city centre as the second day of the music event gets underway.
Festival goers will enjoy acts including Biffy Clyro, Fontaines D.C and Jake Bugg on Saturday.
Organisers recently reversed their policy on sun cream after parents of children attending the event hit out at its ‘no aerosol‘ rule.
A festival spokesperson said: “In line with our prohibited items list, fans were previously permitted to bring small, travel-sized sunscreen into the festival. Following feedback and in response to the ongoing warm weather, we have updated this guidance.
“Fans are now allowed – and encouraged – to bring sun cream of any size to apply throughout the day. Free sun cream will continue to be available at our help and welfare points for anyone who needs it.”
