As of 11am on Saturday, the Met Office forecast raises the chance of thunderstorms between 5pm and 7pm and again at 10pm – around the time headliner Sam Fender will be set to take the stage.

The festival entered its second day on Saturday after Britpop legends Pulp brought the first night to a colourful close in their first Scottish show in more than a decade.

Crowds were teased with a lengthy introduction with captions on a screen reading: “This is a night you will remember for the rest of your life.

“You are about to see the 529th concert by Pulp. This performance is an encore. An encore happens because the crowd wants more.”
