Theme Announcement: Summer of '69 - Peace and Love

There will be a live performance from Simply Dylan, a fancy dress competition, and 1969 themed areas across the site as part of our Summer of '69 celebration. The iconic 1969 Isle of Wight Festival saw Bob Dylan headline alongside The Who, Free and Joe Cocker, so dig out your blouses and bell-bottoms because this year we're going retro.

Don your finest ‘60s attire to experience the Summer of ‘69 - Peace and Love. The Festival is throwing it back 50 years to the iconic 1969 event, which was written into the history books thanks to headline performances from Bob Dylan and The Who, and a guest-list resembling a who’s who of music, including John Lennon, George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Elton John and more.
