The last day of the festival was hit by torrential rain - but most revellers were undeterred
The last day of BBC Radio 2's Party in the Park has been hit by torrential rain today - but the party in Preston has carried on regardless, with a string of dynamic performances rocking the main stage.
It follows the first official day at the festival which saw performances by Craig David, Snow Patrol and Sugababes before being closed out by Sting. When beginning his set the veteran rockstar said:"It is so good to be back in the north of England."But he might not have echoed that sentiment today as the rain has continued all day and worsened into the evening.
