Thousands of people descended on Little Johns Farm in Reading at the weekend as one of the country's biggest music festivals returned.

They were joined by a host of big-name acts across the weekend, including Imagine Dragons, Nas, the 1975, Duke Dumont and the Vaccines.

Our photographer Ian Longthorne has captured dozens of incredible images from the festival. Check out our photo gallery above.
