More than 38,000 music fans packed Hillsborough Park as the Tramlines Festival got underway in Sheffield.

Fatboy Slim headlined Friday’s entertainment, while Kaiser Chiefs, The Vaccines, The Coral, Vanessa Carlton, Black Honey, The K’s and many more performed across the festival.

Elsewhere, music took to Sheffield’s tram network for the first time with Tramlines on Track—a nod to the much-loved Buskers Bus from the festival’s early years.

Tramlines continues today with Courteeners, Blossoms, Rick Astley and the festival’s first-ever fancy-dress day, before Wolf Alice and Wet Leg bring the weekend to a close on Sunday.
