South London sweetheart Lianne La Havas stole the audience’s hearts as she headlined the Communion stage at Citadel festival on Sunday.

The singer-songwriter answered calls of ‘I love you’ from the Victoria Park crowd as she seamlessly switched guitars between songs on July 17.

The 26-year-old belted out hits including Green and Gold, Forget and Unstoppable.

Meanwhile Nathaniel Ratcliffe & The Night Sweats and Caribou got the crowd dancing in the sunshine before Sigur Rós headlined the main stage.
