Ipswich Music Day returned once again for another fun filled day of music, entertainment, food, drink and rides.

The festival, which is the UK's largest free one day festival, once again delighted thousands as artists performed throughout the day across six stages in the park.

Despite the weather changing throughout the day to eventually culminate in a double rainbow appearing in the sky above the festival, thousands turned out.

The 34th edition of the festival, which has previously seen the likes of Ed Sheeran perform who has gone on to have his own stage named after him, saw up and coming names such as AfterDrive, Pixelh8 and Piers James perform, as well as Glastonbury regulars The Downsetters.

Talking at the festival, band members, families and fans said they were "buzzing, elated and excited" to be part of the festival.

Upcoming alternative-rock group, Permanent Daylight, won the Battle of the Bands competition run by their college, One Sixth Form College.

Their teacher, Michael Benyon, said: "We are elated about this performance and so proud of these guys. They're no longer our students but we are still very proud of them."

Ipswich group DREGS also performed, with member Drew Wilson saying: "I mean look at all the different music: you walk in and you've got thrash metal in your face, then you've got some chilled acoustic stuff and a just bit of everything.

"Plus, it's great for family as well. I've got my my two kids, my dad is here, and everyone loves it!"
