The crowd at V 2006

V Festival 2006

By Josh Withey and Alice Malin
As if to make up for the beautifully sunny past couple of years at V, this time the British weather did not fail to disappoint, with torrential rains all weekend. Find out what we got up to and who we met at V Festival 2006.

How to make a V Festival 2006 edition:

Rain, mud, 60,000 campers, 84,000 festival-goers, tents, stages, sprinkle with a few bands and leave to soak.

Well that's what it felt like anyway. After torrential rains V Festival 2006 appeared a wash-out. However fans proved their festival spirit would not be dampened and stuck out the rain to enjoy some of today's best bands.
