Leeds Festival 2024: Live as first acts appear on stage and excitement builds after Storm Lilian causes chaos
Leeds Festival 2024 has officially kicked off with the first acts appearing on stage - after this morning’s chaos with strong winds caused by Storm Lilian.
Excitement is continuing to build at Bramham Park ahead of headliner Liam Gallagher’s performance this evening.
It comes after heavy winds hit the festival site this morning, overturning tents and portaloos, with barriers blown over.


Organisers had to close three of the main stages to the disappointment of fans, as big-name acts including Skrillex and Beabadoobee were cancelled.
Liam Gallagher is set to close out the first day with a headline set on the main stage this evening.
