A man is being treated in hospital after being stabbed at Parklife festival.
The attack happened at around 6.30pm on Sunday - the second night of the two-day festival at Heaton Park in Manchester.
It is understood a 22-year-old man approached security after suffering a knife wound to his leg.
Security then alerted police who attended, with staff informing officers where they believed the attack to have happened, having previously spotted a fight occurring.
The man was taken to hospital and remains there in a 'serious but stable' condition today (Monday).
An enquiry has now been launched with detectives said to be following a number of lines of enquiry.
A spokeswoman for Greater Manchester Police said: "Officers were called just after 6.30pm last night (12 September 2021) by security staff at Parklife to a report of a stabbing.
