This is a daytime event (e.g. starts late morning or early afternoon - see below for times).
It slices, it dices and it'll even get you high if you let it. Welcome to the phenomenon that is the 'V' Festival. Like all Virgin products, cynics will whinge that it's just not the real thing, but the converted will rejoyce in its modern approach, and that certainly includes us. Most festivals revel in their ideologies, and V's is simply that a bit of corporate sponsorship is a small price to pay for a secure, mud-free site with low queueing times and premier league artists. V is also the UK's first and only dual two-day site, occuring simultaneously in Chelmsford and Staffordshire, with the line-ups rotating each day.
