It was the show we had all been waiting for and hoped the weather did not ruin.
American superstar Justin Timberlake was this weekend headling Saturday’s Lytham Festival line up.
And he certainly didn’t disappoint.
Taking to the stage with with an army of backing singers, musicians and a member of N.E.R.D., the 10-time Grammy Award winner played in front of a sell-out crowd of 25,000 people.
