Watch: Timelapse shows how Wollaton Park transformed for record Splendour Festival

Video: Timelapse footage from the roof of Wollaton Hall shows the site take shape

Timelapse footage shows how an army of technicians have turned Wollaton Park into a music venue which will welcome the biggest Splendour crowd ever on Saturday.

Set-up has been going on all week on the slopes beneath the iconic Wollaton Hall, with 25,000 people expected to see acts including Kaiser Chiefs, Busted and Tony Hadley.

And timelapse footage shot by Nottingham’s Confetti Institute of Creative Technologies, which helps run the festival, reveals how it has all come together across bird’s eye views of the park.

Ticket holders can enjoy storming sets from the headliners and other acts across three music stages and a comedy stage.

There will also be a kids’ area, funfair and entertainers out and about in the crowd and roaming animatronic dinosaurs.

Organisers say the event is expected to be a sell out after capacity was upped in 2017 to make the festival the biggest yet. Only a handful of tickets were left on sale online on Friday.

Nottingham live music company DHP Family runs the event, alongside other organisations including Confetti and Nottingham City Council.
