WINNERS of the recent Nozstock competition, run by the Worcester News, could party like superheroes, thanks to the prizes they won in addition to the tickets.

The winner was Mark Matthews of Bristol, who spotted the competition online and entered.

With the weather not looking too promising for the music festival, he was grateful for the DC Comics/Paladone festival essentials, which included a Batman poncho, a Batman vacuum flask and a DC Comics backpack.

Mr Matthews, who took his family along, said: "We had a great time, and the weather was pretty good, after all."
