THOUSANDS of music fans descended on a Prestwich park to enjoy the country's best tribute bands.

Festwich was held in St Mary's Park on Saturday and Sunday with bands including Mentallica and Kings Ov Leon. 

The annual event is free with festival-goers paying a small booking fee for tickets. 

While the sun shone on Saturday, revellers were met with rain on day two of Festwich - but plenty of fun was still had by hardy music fans.

Where did the sun go?

Take cover

Still smiling
