Since its inception in 1968, the Isle of Wight Festival has routinely made history. Around 600,000-700,000 people attended the 1970 edition of the festival, as estimated by the Guinness Book of Records, and the huge numbers forced it to be closed down. Thankfully, in 2002, it was revived.
That wasn’t the only time the festival rocked into the history books either, with Bob Dylan headlining the 1969 edition and The Who’s 1970 performance — which began at 2am — actually spawning a full live album.
Now, the 2023 Festival is offering another top-notch line-up full of beloved stars and household names. Read on for our complete guide to the Festival and the latest info on how to get tickets.
