The Met Office weather forecast for this year’s Leeds Festival suggests the event will be dry but not particularly sunny.
The Bramham Park forecast says showers are highly unlikely, despite the lack of sunshine also being predicted. This will come as a relief to campers who arrived yesterday to intermittent rain in the afternoon.
Conditions look like being pretty settled throughout the extended weekend. Temperatures are set to peak at around 21C each day.
