V Festival 2010 to be Streamed Live Online

This weekend’s V Festival is to be streamed live online for the first time ever in the event’s history.

The 2010 V Festival will be broadcast for free on the official site in partnership with Ovi by Nokia. Webcast footage from three of the festival's four stages at its Chelmsford site will be broadcast live.

In addition to the live performances, the streaming will also include artist interviews as well as competitions where viewers will get the chance to win themselves one of the many Nokia smartphones up for grabs.

Festival-goers can also get the latest weather reports, festival gossip and tweets from artists on the official free V Festival mobile app, as well as download an interactive map of the festival sites in Chelmsford and at Weston Park, Staffordshire.

Music fans will also be able to watch sets on V Festival's YouTube channel as well as on the artists' official website while they're playing.

The twin-site event will feature headline performances from the likes of Kasabian and Kings of Leon. Also performing this weekend are dance legends The Prodigy, Groove Armada, Faithless and David Guetta.

Other big names on the bill include Paul Weller, Stereophonics, Editors, The Coral, The Kooks, Seasick Steve, The Charlatans, Doves, Calvin Harris, Madness, Florence and the Machine and many more.
