Digital journalist Benjamin Jackson briefly discusses his experience camping at Leeds Festival 2002 when the riots broke out on the last night of the festival. The festival moved from it's original site of Temple Newsam to it's current home at Bramham Park in 2003 after the riots took place - causing £250,000 worth of damage and 19 arrests.
