Leeds Festival music fans have been left furious following the closure of two of its stages - including the legendary Radio 1 tent - for the rest of the weekend. Storm Lilian's wrath wreaked havoc in Yorkshire, making it unsafe for some of the stages to open at the Branham Park festival.

Hopeful attendees had been setting up camp but the storm's impact was so severe the Radio 1 tent and the Aux stage have been declared "lost". The Chevron stage was also shut but this will reopen today. The organisers expressed their deep regret but that "mother nature had played her part".
