The previous Isle Of Wight festival was headlined by Snow Patrol, David Guetta, Duran Duran and Liam Gallagher, the latter of whom injured himself by falling out of a helicopter while leaving the festival site.
This year’s event was postponed until September due to the coronavirus restrictions, with the pandemic also forcing the 2020 version of the festival to be canceled.
