subject: V Festival 2010 Hylands Park [print this page] V was the first UK festival to operate over two days and swap line-ups overnight. Since 96, some of the worlds greatest performers have graced the stages including Radiohead, Morrissey, The Strokes, Coldplay, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Blur, Faithless, Razorlight and Kylie
V It began from an idea shared by Jarvis Cocker who mentioned that he wanted to play two outdoor gigs in two days - the right folk got together and hey presto V was born. Beginning in 1996 V was the first festival to operate a two site option and the first year had a Warrington leg before moving to Temple Newsam in Leeds for the next two years - in 1999 Weston Park became the new home for the V festival in the North where it has since remained and firmly established itself as a festival to be reckoned with.
Many of the world's best bands have played the V festival over the years and the event has brought with it some tremendous and eclectic line ups ranging from pure pop to rock and alternative - V has now become firmly established on the festival circuit and has a well deserved following.
Sponsored by Virgin some have complained that it's a highly commercialised festival but don't let that put you off - V festival is still a great fun festival and it always attracts a cutting edge line up ...
The Weston Park leg tends to be more 'real' for our taste attracting less of the celeb set - but it's horses for courses - if you prefer celeb city and enjoy the chance to bump into someone famous then Chelmsford is the one for you - and maybe that's one of V festivals greatest strengths - although they have the same line up both festivals have a very different feel so you have a choice for which one suits you best. Whichever one you do choose we think you'll have a great time at V.
