V Event 2016 Testimonial

Your 21st is constantly one to remember, especially when you are among the most popular music events on the planet. V Feast 2016 marked the 21st time that acts had actually required to Chelmford's Hylands Park combined with Stafford's Weston Park, and also it was clear that organisers had taken out all the stops. If you should find out exactly what shed intense combined with exactly what fizzled on the vine, we're here to bring you the news.

Starting with the very best is easy - Rihanna absolutely filled that role. Currently with 8 albums to her name and 11 years in songs, Rihanna absolutely had a whole lot to collaborate with, as well as the worldwide superstar brought everything throughout an unanimously favored efficiency. Opening with dark pop-ballad Keep, her genre-spanning set mixed the new with the classic. The rain even boiled down hefty during Umbrella, which is the closest the event scene has ever reached divine intervention.

But perhaps part of the reason Rihanna was able to establish the crowd on fire come Sunday was the woeful efficiency of Justin Bieber on Saturday. "I'm a little hungover," he admitted, and also it really did show. The statement that Biebs would be headlining obtained just what might at finest be described as a warm function from V followers, and even a surprisingly strong acoustic performance of Love Yourself couldn't quite endear the target market to him after numerous spells of lip-syncing as well as a general lack of enthusiasm

Past the headliners were a variety of unusual treasures. Jodie Abacus took to the MTV Phase as one of the opening acts as well as carried out a heart set that rejected any type of criticisms that this year's V Fest would suffer from a lack of music material. We were also stunned by Little Mix. The X Element girls have clearly come a long way, as well as they absolutely smashed their Sunday evening set with acts such as Salute, Hair, as well as Secret Love Song.

We additionally had Stormzy to bring gunk to V fest. A last-minute addition to the line-up, Stormzy's Know Me From and Shut Up prompted the biggest and craziest mosh-pits of the entire weekend, sturdily sealing the grime innovator as a best fit for the fest. He even introduced that music from the V collection will certainly be utilized in his next video.

The appeal of V Feast has actually absolutely done nothing to hurt its environment, and also the 21st anniversary celebration came off remarkably. We highly recommend checking out following year's event.
