Sky presents Isle of Wight Festival has revealed the lineup for its 25th anniversary edition
The Isle of Wight Festival has revealed that Fatboy Slim, Robbie Williams and Kings of Leon will headline a major anniversary edition of the festival this summer. 2027 marks 25 years of the revived Isle of Wight Festival, returning to Seaclose Park on 17-20 June.
Also on the line up are Bastille, Courteeners, Becky Hill, Myles Smith, Kaiser Chiefs, Rudimental, 5 Seconds of Summer, Inhaler, Jack Savoretti, Keo, T’Pau, Scouting For Girls, The Cardigans, The Lilacs, Cruz Beckham and The Breakers, Aaron Rowe, Logicaltramp and Rick Parfitt Jnr Band, with many more acts still to be revealed.
Fatboy Slim will bring the party on Friday night. One of electronic music’s most iconic figures, he’ll unite the crowd at the Main Stage with anthems like ‘Praise You’ and ‘Right Here, Right Now’, his headline set promises a huge Friday night party.
Robbie Williams will headline the Main Stage on Saturday. With over 90 million album sales worldwide, six of the Top 100 best-selling albums in British history and a record-breaking 16 UK Number 1 albums to his name, he’ll bring hits like ‘Angels’, ‘Rock DJ’ and ‘Let Me Entertain You.’
Kings of Leon will close the festival on Sunday 20 June. The multi-Grammy and BRIT Award-winning group are recognised as one of the world’s biggest alternative rock bands, and have headlined festivals including Glastonbury, Coachella, Lollapalooza, three Reading & Leeds Festivals, and a recent record-breaking fifth night at London’s Hyde Park.
Speaking about the festival’s 2027 line-up, festival director Caroline Giddings said: “Fatboy Slim, Robbie Williams and Kings of Leon each bring something different to the weekend. With Becky Hill, Bastille and Myles Smith also on the bill, there’s a real mix of artists for different generations and tastes, and there’s still more to come.
“We put a lot of thought into what happens beyond the main stages, too. The food, the entertainment and the spaces where people can spend time together are all part of what makes it a special weekend on the Island.”
Away from the Main Stage, there will be plenty to discover. Sky Open House creates the ultimate festival hangout space from which to relax, rewind and enjoy live performances. Electro Love brings together tribute acts, live bands and DJs playing music from the 80s, 90s and 00s, whilst Hipshaker Lounge hosts funk, soul, ska and indie with vinyl DJ sets and dance classes, and Steeler’s Wheel hosts DJs from across the south coast and the Island.
Visitors can explore Kashmir Café, run by Island volunteers with all profits supporting Quay Arts, offering live music and Island-brewed ales. The Intoxicated Tea Rooms offers cocktails, vintage entertainment and dance workshops, finishing the night with a silent disco. Sound of Silence offers a quieter wooded space to take a breather and enjoy a sound bath, whilst Kidzone offers theatre, magic, circus workshops, crafts and discos, alongside dedicated toddler and sensory spaces, with all activities free for families.
