Anne-Marie on the festival's Main Stage on Saturday
Ed Sheeran, Anne-Marie, Sigrid and Joel Corry are among the artists who've taken to the stage in front of tens of thousands of music fans at Radio 1's Big Weekend.
The three-day event is taking place at Coventry's War Memorial Park and it's the first time it has been in person in three years.
Anne-Marie, who performed on the Main Stage, told Radio 1 Newsbeat she thought Big Weekend felt like "the perfect mixture of a festival".
"Let go, forget all your problems and what's going on in your life, and have the best day ever."
While Joel Corry said he was "living my dream" after his set.
"I feel like the luckiest person in the world. This has always been my dream, to be on the big stages," he said.
Here's some of the best pictures from the weekend so far:
