Tens of thousands of music fans flocked to London for the weekend's Wireless festival.

The two-day event took place in Hyde Park, the scene of recent open-air performances from Bruce Springsteen and Blur.

Dance duo Basement Jaxx headlined on Saturday while US hip-hop star Kanye West brought proceedings to a close on Sunday.

Tinchy Stryder, Calvin Harris and Mark Ronson were among the other big crowd-pullers at the event.

Felix Buxton from Basement Jaxx said: "It's very hot. Everyone's half-dressed, having a drink in the sun, so it's great."
