Getting V Festival Tickets Even After They Have Sold Out



Originating as an alternative rock festival back in 1996, the V Festival has since expanded its musical borders to include the best Brit-pop acts having showcased Lilly Allen, Estelle, Fatboy Slim, The Killers, and Pulp just to name a few. It is unique in that it is held in two separate venues, Hylands Park, Chelmsford and Weston Park, Staffordshire, and is recognized as the country's 3rd largest music festival. Stories peg the reasoning behind the twin venues in 1996 where Jarvis Cocker of Pulp suggested that he would like to perform at two different outdoor locations in the span of two days. Since then it has been going strong, showcasing only the cream of the crop in today's British music scene. It is held every third weekend of August with V tickets usually being sold in March. Tickets only take hours to sell out, so it pays to be able to secure your means of getting tickets ahead of time.

One of the popular boy-bands that dominated the early 90s is experiencing renewed success today. Take That originally broke into the British-pop music scene and then went on to sell 25 million records across the globe. Sadly despite their unique soft rock ballad style, they eventually disbanded in 1996 much to the dismay of its solid fan base. However in 2005 they reunited, minus Robbie Williams who was having a solid career on his own, and found renewed success. As soon as they went on sale, Take That concert tickets would soon sell out, and they also went on to expand their global record sales up to more than 40 million. In 2010, Robbie Williams made his inevitable return to the boy-band that formed the foundation for his solo career and made him a household name, much to the delight of all their fans.

As music fans, it can be a challenge to get tickets to many performances of the most popular music artists and bands. Concert tickets can easily sellout as soon as they are put on sale, and ticket brokers make it even more difficult by buying a sizable amount of these tickets to be sold at a huge margin. By finding out when they go on sale ahead of time, you will be able to secure tickets to an event much more easily. Try getting in touch with online ticket sites or try calling the venue that will host the event for information. You can also log on to the artist's website to get tour information.
