The Gazette Reader Travel service has been allocated a number of tickets for the county's largest music event, which will take place at Chelmsford's Hylands Park over the weekend of August 18 and 19.

With headliners the Killers, Snow Patrol and Foo Fighter announced earlier this week, along with a whole host of other top acts including Manic Street Preachers, Kasabian and the Kooks, this year's V Festival looks set to be just as popular as in previous years with demand for tickets guaranteed to be high.

Car parking is £5 (plus booking fee) if purchased in advance.
