De La Soul's Kelvin Mercer said: "Every time we perform in the UK we get the best reception, from the craziest crowds! V Festival 2015 is going to be the biggest rave of the year, so we're looking forward to being on that stage and joining the party!"
Grammy-nominated MNEK said: "This year has been a whirlwind and it's not over yet. I'm so chuffed to be part of such a brilliant line-up and can't wait to get out there."
Performing at his first UK festival, Nick Jonas commented: "I'm honoured to join such an incredible line up at the 20th anniversary of V Festival," said Jonas. "My fans have been very supportive of my new music so I'm really excited to perform for them at one of the UK's greatest festivals."
The hottest names in music will be performing alongside a hilarious mix of comedy headliners including Russell Kane, Frankie Boyle, Shappi Khorsandi and Matt Richardson, who will all take centre stage in the Glee Club Comedy Tent across the weekend.
