Download festival organisers have warned fans attending this weekend's festival to expect muddy conditions.

In a Twitter update, organisers said the festival site in Donnington was “bloody muddy” and that more rain was expected this week.

“Please bring wellies and waterproofs with you,” the message added. “You WILL need them.”

The current forecast suggests festivalgoers will be greeted by a mixture of sunshine and showers, with top temperatures of 18 degrees.

The festival, which begins on Friday (June 12), is due to be headlined by Slipknot, Faith No More and Def Leppard.

Other acts set to appear include Marilyn Manson, Motley Crue and Anvi.
