As part of our upcoming Do It In Public campaign, Global Cool brings you our guide to the best summer festivals, including how to get there and back without having to dig your car out of a field that looks like northern France circa 1918. Today it’s the Isle of Wight…
Who
New festival favourite Jay Z, party starter Pink and forever young Mr Hudson will be entertaining the crowds over the weekend before the legend that is Paul McCartney headlines on Sunday night. Other acts include Vampire Weekend, Blondie, Biffy Clyro, Doves, Friendly Fires and The Courteeners.
What
For four days the usually quiet Isle of Wight erupts into a party zone. And what makes this festival even better is that it has won a Greener Festival Award for its work in making the Isle of Wight Festival more eco-friendly.
Where
Seaclose Park, Newport
When
11-13 June
Why
Check out one of the stars of this summer’s Isle of Wight Festival, Mr Hudson, talking exclusively to Global Cool last summer…
