Justin Bieber will be soaked with 800 gallons of perfectly purified water when he headlines V Festival 2016.
The ‘Never Say Never’ hitmaker will take to the stage on Saturday August 20 at the music extravaganza’s Chelmsford venue, Hylands Park, in south east England and then travel to Weston Park, Staffordshire, West Midlands, for his headline set on Sunday August 21.
Justin’s set is said to be the most challenging production the festival has ever seen in its 21-year history.
He has requested the water to be 40 degrees when it is fired at him on stage.
