Festival directors Bob Angus, Simon Moran and Dennis Desmond said: 'We’ve worked hard to bring fans an exciting and diverse line-up - securing Beyonce for an exclusive European Festival appearance and Kings of Leon as headliners is a great achievement.
'These acts along with one of the strongest bills in V Festival's 18-year history is something we are very proud of.
'We have a reputation for bringing fans the best world-class acts and breakthrough artists - 2013 is set to be another sensational year.'
