What will the weather be like?

The Azores High will move in over the weekend allowing for lengthy spells of dry fine weather for many.

Met Office’s Aidan McGivern said “The Azores are a group of islands in the mid-Atlantic. Semi-Permanent high pressure sits here throughout much of the year.

“But what’s been happening through this year so far and especially during the summer, is high pressure from the Azores keeps extending across the UK, hence the warm summer and the very dry summer that we’ve had.

“And that repeating pattern repeats again this weekend”

He added: “There’s also an area of low pressure which will likely bring some wetter weather for a time, later Saturday into Sunday to the northwest, mainly Northern Ireland, western Scotland, and then clearing from the far north of Scotland during Monday.”

The forecast for Overton, Hampshire - the location of the festival - is as follows: N

• Friday - Cloudy - highs 22C, lows 15C
• Saturday - Cloudy changing to sunny intervals - highs 22C, lows 13C
• Sunday - Sunny changing to cloudy by late morning - highs 22C, lows 13C
