Isle of Wight Festival has moved from June to September

Isle of Wight Festival has moved dates.

The formerly June event will now run from 16th-19th September, by which time hopefully restrictions surrounding COVID-19 will have eased up a bit.

"We’re thrilled to be able to welcome everyone to the island in September," a press release explains. "We're aiming to bring back as many of the artists as we can but whatever happens, rest assured, you'll enjoy a stellar line-up over the festival weekend. It will be the perfect place to see out the summer in spectacular fashion."

All existing tickets will remain valid for the new date; visit isleofwightfestival.com for more information.
