V FESTIVAL 2017
This year has seemingly flown by since the huge V21st last August when we saw a huge weekend including headliners of Rihanna and Justin Bieber! Now we get to look forward to another huge line up for the 22nd year of V festival, with HUGE headliners of P!NK and JAY-Z! This year is set to be huge and we hope that this Gigs and Tours blog piece will get you excited as we talk about who the top acts are at the event this year!

Jess Glynne will return to V Festival this year, and its safe to say we are over the moon to have her back as she is simply the UK’s Queen of Pop right now!

George Ezra

George is a real V Festival favourite and his first and most recent album ‘wanted on voyage’ was a huge hit in the UK, and he was branded by music critic and well respected Radio 1 DJ as “One of the most compelling and exciting voices around“. He is teasing us with a much anticipated new album and the wait we hope is nearly over for this 2nd album!

Pete Tong has made his name as being a household name in the DJ and Dance industry, yet now he has created, alongside Jules Buckley, a different, individual and special set up where he combines his skills with Jules to create a Dance styled orchestral progress style of house music! Its very different to anything else and will expand your mind on what the limits to music may be!

Ellie Goulding has been the star of the hits such as ‘Love Me Like You Do’, ‘Falling for You’ and also ‘BURN’. She smashed it on the main stage last year at V Festival, and we expect the same from the lady who has since done a huge Arena Tour in the UK!

This man came in as a late addition to V Festival last year… but he seemingly added a whole new level to V 2016!

This man has since has a HUGE album entitled ‘Gang Signs + Prayers’ whilst also recently selling out his first UK tour, including 3 sold out nights at Brixton Academy!
