Newcastle LooseFest reacts as letters from giant sign mysterious go missing

The organisers of LooseFest are naming their reward for the return of part of their festival sign following the weekend's celebrations.

After the two-day festival, headlined by Black Eyed Peas and Mabel, wrapped up on the Town Moor in Newcastle on Sunday, it was revealed that its giant sign had been tampered with and was missing some essential letters. And now organisers want them back and are even prepared to tempt the culprits with the promise of a reward if they return them.

LooseFest, which attacted crowds of around 60,000 music fans over its two days, has won huge praise from fans despite first-day opening delays which meant that DJ Joel Corry could not perform and then a brief halt in Will.i.am's performance that same evening when a fan needed some medical help. It went on to rock the moor with non-stop music until Sunday night.
