THREE new acts have been confirmed for this year’s V Festival.

New Zealand pop starlet Ladyhawke, indie band the Lightning Seeds and the infectious Danish six-piece Alphabeat have been added to the roster of bands set to perform at Hylands Park, Chelmsford.

“Here at V, we always aim to deliver the best line-up and offer something everyone can enjoy,” says Bob Angus, festival director.

“With these great additions to the already 60-plus line-up, this year’s V Festival is set to be the best yet.

“But stay tuned. We still have a few more sneaky additions up our sleeves.”

The new acts will join headliners Oasis and the Killers, as well as Razorlight and Pendulum, for the festival on August 22 and 23.
