Reading Festival: Revellers bask in record temperatures

Thousands of people have baked in soaring temperatures at Reading Festival during the hottest late August bank holiday weekend on record.

The 1975 and The Hunna drew large crowds on the main stage on Friday and Saturday and the Foo Fighters are expected to draw even more on later.

Here is how festival-goers have been enjoying the music in the sunshine.
