V Festival 2011 Weather Forecast 'Looking Dry' At Hylands Park In Chelmsford

Festival-goers who will be headling this weekend's V Festival in Chelmsford will be greeted by sunny weather, the Met Office has said.

The dual festival is set to take place in Chelmsford and Staffordshire from August 20-21 with headline performance from Eminem and Arctic Monkeys. Rihanna is also on the bill.

A Met Office spokesperson told Gigwise that there was a chance of rain at the festival site at Hylands Park on Thursday (August 18), but these would die out.

On Saturday and Sunday the forecast is set to be sunny and “looking dry”, with temperatures up to a maximum of 23 degrees.

Tinie Tempah, Jessie J, Glasvega, The Courteeners, Bruno Mars, Kele, Ocean Colour Scene, The Wombats and Mark Ronson are also on the bill for V Festival.
