V Festival has today presented its headliners for The Glee Club Comedy Tent at this year's festival, with Scottish funnyman Frankie Boyle taking the helm alongside Essex boy Russell Kane.

Headlining amongst an array of heavyweights in the comedy genre, there's guarantees of great humour being brought to the popular stage.

Speaking ahead of his show, Russell said: "'I can't believe I'm headlining the V Festival Glee Club Comedy Tent! I will celebrate afterwards by heading straight to the Dance Tent, and throwing myself around to techno music like a tribal chief beating a drum."

Shappi Khorsandi will be making her second appearance at V Festival this year, and she added: "Sadly, rock stardom didn't happen for me so performing at V Festival's Glee Club Comedy Tent is the very next best thing."

Fellow performer Seann Walsh commented: "I am looking forward to V Festival. However, I am not looking forward to the few days after it. I am both excited and terrified. Oh God!"

Comedy acts joining those four include Nick Helm and Gary Delaney, at the festival taking place over the weekend of August 22-23 at both Hylands Park, Chelmsford and Weston Park, Staffordshire.

Tickets for V Festival 2015 are available online now at www.vfestival.com.
