I managed to get a free ticket for V festival in Weston Park in Stafford this year. i went along with 3 of my friends and i have to say it was the best weekend i have experienced!
Firstly the fact that i got to see some of my favourite artists of all time such as oasis and the killers!! I have to say seeing oasis live was one of the highlights of my life so far! massive fan! thank god they didnt cancel Weston Park!!! other highlights included Snow patrol, Lily Allen, Razorlight and James Morrison!
Apart from the fantastic live music, the atmosphere is incredible. The park itself is like a little village and everyone seems to be happy and up for a good time.
I would advise not to bring too much stuff as me and my friends didnt realise the long walk we had to our campsite and it was very long and painful!! i would also advise bringing a wheelbarrow/something you can pull for your alcohol as thats what will be the heaviest to carry.
The only negative points are the toilets,which are probably the most vile things i have ever seen! haha! but i honestly didnt care that much as i was having such a great time! also the fact that some acts are on at the same time so you dont always get to see who you want and it tends to be the most popular at the same time which is a pain!
I would definitely recomend V festival to anybody who likes live band music as it is just an experience of a lifetime. i definitely would have payed the price if i had to! so worth it!!! also i would advise you DO NOT bring little children!!
