This weekend saw the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Avicii and many more take to the stage at London's Wireless Festival - but also gatecrashers break through a locked gate to storm into the event. See footage of the incident below. 

During the opening day of the event at Finsbury Park on Friday (3 July, 2015), it was during Lethal Bizzle's set that a crowd gathered outside a locked gate before bursting through it and rushing past security. 

"This was an isolated incident that was dealt with quickly where no-one was hurt," said a Wireless spokesman. "The perpetrators were removed on an otherwise hugely successful first day. Organisers of Wireless Festival take security very seriously and work closely with ShowSec Security, local police and other agencies to put procedures in place to ensure the event maintains an enjoyable and secure environment for all its customers."

A very similar incident took place at Finsbury Park back in 2010 when fans broke into a Rage Against The Machine gig:
