LooseFest festivalgoers have been sharing their frustration on the opening day of event after being met with delays, queues and technical errors.
Around 60,000 music fans were expected to descend on Newcastle's Town Moor to attend the North East's 'biggest music festival' over the course of the weekend. But some of those who attended its opening day said they were met with long queues.
It was also reported that there was a 90-minute delay to the event which was scheduled to begin at 12pm. LooseFest organisers have apologised since for a "small, but important technical issue that resulted in a delay to the start time."
