Last night saw some of the festival industry's biggest names turn out for the 14th annual UK Festival Awards ceremony.
Taking place at London's Troxy, the awards were sponsored by Skiddle and recognise the hard work and vision that organisations across the industry showcase year after year.
Split into categories, gongs were scooped by the likes of Latitude for the Best Major Festival, Lost Village picked up two awards for Best Small Festival and Best Production, while Camp Bestival was voted Best Family Festival.
