V Festival (Chelmsford) 2007

Saturday 18th to Sunday 19th August 2007
Hylands Park, Chelmsford, Essex, CM2 8WQ, England MAP
£130 w/e (with camping), £110 w/e (no camping), £63.50

Mexican guitar mavericks Roderigo Y Gabriela have a busy schedule ahead of them this weekend, when they will be performing a staggering four times at this year's V Festival, which takes place at the duel sites of Hylands Park, Chelmsford, Essex and Weston Park, Staffordshire.

The band will replace Bright Eyes who were scheduled to headline the Virgin Mobile Union Stage, but have had to pull out due to 'unforeseen circumstances'.

This means Rodrigo Y Gabriela will start off by playing the opening slot on The V Stage at Weston Park, Stafford, before flying down to Chelmsford to headline the Virgin Mobile Union Stage, then staying overnight so they can open the V stage at Chelmsford on Sunday, before flying back to Stafford to headline the Virgin Mobile Union stage once more! After that they should have earned themselves a well deserved break.



There are over 100 acts confirmed to perform at this year's V Festival, including The Killers, Foo Fighters, Snow Patrol, Kasabian, Pink, James, Kanye West, Jarvis Cocker, Paolo Nutini, The Fratellis, Editors, KT Tunstall, James Morrison, Basement Jaxx, The Kooks, Manic Street Preachers, Dizzee Rascal, Lily Allen, Babyshambles, Mika, Primal Scream, Damien Rice, Corinne Bailey Rae, and more. To see which acts play at which site on which day, click for Hylands Park, Chelmsford or Weston Park, Staffordshire.

Tickets for Chelmsford are completely sold out, and there are only disabled tickets available for weekend (no camping) or for either days at Staffordshire. To buy click here.

If you are still in need of a place to camp at Chelmsford then you can always pitch up at the nearby Montpeliers Farm which is only 10 minutes walk from the main arena. To do this click here.
