V Festival is set to be one of the most in-demand events of 2013, with headliner Beyonce expected to lead all tickets to sell out within 20 minutes of going on sale.
The 'Crazy In Love' superstar was announced as headliner of V Festival 2013 alongside Kings Of Leon this week, shortly after tickets for her own headline tour sold out in minutes. Viagogo is predicting this year's V Festival tickets will sell out in record time for the event when they go on sale at 9am tomorrow (1 March, 2013).
"V Festival could sell out in as little as 20 minutes, breaking all previous records thanks to Beyonce’s headline slot," says Ed Parkinson, spokesperson for Viagogo. "With many fans left empty handed following the onsale of her World Tour, V Festival gives them another chance to see Mrs Carter live on stage."
Also on the line up are Stereophonics, The Script, Emeli Sandé, Calvin Harris, Beady Eye, Jessie J, Two Door Cinema Club, The Vaccines, Basement Jaxx, Olly Murs, Paloma Faith, James, Rita Ora, The Courteeners, Jason Mraz, FUN., Labrinth, Ellie Goulding, Kendrick Lamar, Of Monsters And Men, Maverick Sabre, Travis, DJ Fresh, Jessie Ware, Maximo Park, Lianne La Havas, Rudimental, James Arthur, Scouting For Girls, Deacon Blue, Little Mix, Ocean Colour Scene, The Fratellis, Gabrielle Aplin and Laura Mvula.
Don't forget Kings Of Leon - they are also headlining V Festival 2013
Speaking of the 2013 V Festival line-up, directors Bob Angus, Simon Moran and Dennis Desmond said in a joint statement: "We’ve worked hard to bring fans an exciting and diverse line-up, securing Beyonce for an exclusive European Festival appearance and Kings of Leon as headliners is a great achievement. These acts along with one of the strongest bills in V Festival's 18 year history is something we are very proud of.
"We have a reputation for bringing fans the best world class acts and breakthrough artists, 2013 is set to be another sensational year."
