Counterfeit tickets caused Friday-night delays for some people arriving to the Isle of Wight festival, resulting in up to a 90 minute wait to get onto the site.

Festival goers who had bought the convincing-looking fake tickets - having spent up to £300 - still had to be turned away. The sold-out event had strict capacity limits and licensing requirements, so only genuine ticket holders could be allowed in.

This extra checking on the gate caused many people to miss some of Friday night’s performers, which including a fantastic set from The Feeling, prior to the rousing dance music of Groove Armada and the lighters-in-the-air Snow Patrol.
