The music finished last night, but the campsite remains open until noon today.

Artists have urged festival goers to leave no trace behind when they leave the festival.

"Take your tents home - and love earth!"

Following last year's Leeds Festival, local charities saved hundreds of leftover sleeping bags, tents and other resources from going to waste.

The leftover items were used to help the homeless and less fortunate around Leeds and further afield.

Traffic is already building up this morning as cars leave the festival site, particularly on the A1M Northbound between Junction 43 and Junction 46.

Highways England tweeted: "The A1M Northbound prior to J44 Leeds is starting to build as far back as Junction 43 Hookmoor.

"Please allow extra time for your journeys."

The West Yorkshire Roads Policing Unit has also urged drivers to take care on the A1M due to the large volume of people leaving Leeds Festival.

They warned to plan extra time for journeys and concentrate carefully, as traffic may suddenly slow or stop.
