BOOMTOWN Fair got going properly today with more than 75,000 people descending on the Matterley Estate near Winchester.

The music event, held for the first time since 2019, will last until Sunday August 14.

The Boomtown Fair site is seen here from the air with the photo taken from a drone over the A272 at Cheesefoot Head.
