Update as Download Festival announce closure of one car park after filling up with early bird fans

Thousands of rock fans are heaving to Download Festival for a weekend full of music from the likes of Kiss and Iron Maiden. Many festival goes are travelling by car to the event but organisers now say one of their car parks is already full.

Download Festival posted an update on their Twitter which read: "A reminder that West car park is now full, but we have plenty of space in the North and East car parks. Please follow the road signage accordingly."

The West car park filled up yesterday (Wednesday 8) as early bird fans arrived to kick start their music filled weekend. It comes after many Download attendees reported that they had not received their tickets and parking passes until just days before.

Some have still not got their parking passes but Download have assured travellers that they can show booking confirmation and matching ID instead. They will then be able to pick up a pass while on the site.

There are still some parking passes available at a cost of £25 but they are accepting card only.
