The V Festival is an annual music festival in England, the first to be held simultaneously at two sites. Originally, the festival took the name of the current year, with the first festival being named “V96″. Since 2003 it has been known as simply the V Festival.
Organized by Metropolis Music and SJM Concerts, V Festival is held at Hylands Park in Chelmsford and Weston Park in South Staffordshire simultaneously. V Festival sites share the same line-up, artists perform at one location on Saturday and then swap on Sunday. The ‘V’ represents the Virgin Group, with V Festival being sponsored by Virgin Media.
