The star-studded lineup music fans have come to expect from V Festival will be bigger than ever. We\u2019re dipping into the archives to showcase some throwback performances too, so people can reminisce on some of their favorites memories from past years.\u201d<\/p>\n David Brindley, chief creative officer at Twofour, said: \u201cWe can\u2019t substitute the joy of muddy boots, beer tents and the unpredictable British weather, but we hope that these three evenings of first-rate entertainment with much loved-performers will inspire ITV viewers to recreate that festival feeling at home. We\u2019ve had just five weeks to put on a socially distanced music festival with all the production that entails, and I\u2019d like to thank our incredible team who have worked so hard to make it happen.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Twofour has been commissioned by ITV2 to produce a three-part special on\u00a0Virgin Media\u2019s V Festival.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":10457,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[129,1655,2507],"class_list":["post-10456","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-itv2","tag-twofour","tag-v-festival"],"yoast_head":"\n
