Y Not Festival is ‘best one ever’
The three day event, which took place over the weekend, was attended by 10,000 revellers – making it the largest crowd the Pikehall music festival has ever accommodated.
Community Safety Sergeant Mark Wright, who attended the festival, said: “On the whole the atmosphere was positive and officers patrolling the site throughout the weekend were well received by festival goers they spoke to.”

“Thank you to everybody who was involved or attended so very, very much – we’ve had brilliant feedback so far.”
As with any large-scale event, there were, unfortunately, a few reports of thefts from tents which police are investigating.
Several people were also refused entry after being caught with drugs.
