VIDEOS are starting to emerge on social media of the mess left behind after Creamfields.
Around 70,000 people attended the electronic dance music festival in Daresbury over the bank holiday weekend.
Festivalgoers attended from Thursday to Sunday, with many choosing to camp at the site over the long weekend.

Now that all have returned home after the festival came to an end for another year, the scale of the mess left behind can be seen.
A lot of tents were damaged before the festival even started, with Storm Lilian on Thursday leading to a weather warning being issued for strong winds.
Those camping at the site reported tents being damaged in the severe weather.

However, a large number of perfectly good tents remain on the land after festivalgoers decided against taking them home.
Other general rubbish can be seen littering the location, such as empty drinks boxes and cans.
