In August I attended the V Festival held at Chelmsford in Essex. This is an Annual Music Festival that's held in a couple locations in the UK and the best of the best bands come and perform, so you're able to go for a day or stay for the entire weekend and watch a lot of artists perform, and of course have a great party at the same time.
I went with my friends Justin, Carly, Kris and Stacey. We drove up in two vans on the Saturday morning and headed out to Chelmsford fairly early. There was a fair bit of traffic on the way there, but wasn't too bad fortunately. On our way we popped into Asda and got our groceries for our little camping adventure and off we went to the Festival. We stated in the Yellow Camper Camping Site I think it was or maybe it was Red not sure anymore he he..... We had a great spot and a lot of space around us.
We set up camp and once all ready we headed off to the stages and main festival area.
This was a bit further away from the campsites but the weather was wonderful so enjoyed the walk there. There were a number of different stages to chose from so we purchased an Events Itenarary and then selected which stage we wanted to go to and which artist we wanted to see.
There was so much choice that one really was stuck having to choose.
I ended up seeing some fantastic bands and artists such as Lenny Kravitz, Sterophonics, The Verve, Muse, Kings of Leon, The Chemical Brothers, The Script, Amy Winehouse and many more.
We had a fantastic time there. I must admit it's probably the best weekend I've had this year so far. I was with wonderful people and we had such a good laugh together, I enjoyed every minute of it.
Of course the whole Porta loo experience is never one to write home about , but all in all I LOVE IT !
We left late on the Sunday evening and headed back home.
I definitely intend on going back again in 2009, it's now become one of those events that I wont miss if I'm in the UK that's for sure !
Would love to go again with a big group of friends and camp it will be a blast !
Here's a few pics of the fanstastic time we had.
