The Prodigy to headline Friday at Isle Of Wight

plus Pendulum, and The Ting Tings, added to the Friday

Wednesday 21st January 2009


More of the line-up for Friday has been confirmed for the eighth Isle of Wight Festival which happens from Friday 12th until Sunday 14th June 2009 at Seaclose Park, Newport, Isle of Wight.

The Prodigy
Headlining the Friday will be The Prodigy, who return to the Isle Of Wight Festival for the first time since 2006. Playing before them will be the previously announced Basement Jaxx.

Completing the announcements for the first day of the festival are Australian drum and bass masters Pendulum, and pop duo The Ting Tings, who are both also set to grace the main stage.

Pendulum
More of the line-up including acts for the Saturday and Sunday of the festival are expected to be released in the coming weeks.

Tickets for the festival are priced at £140 for an adult ticket with camping which includes entertainment in the campsite on Thursday night, and £70 for a child ticket (12 years and under). The price of an adult ticket without camping is £120 and £60 for children (12 years and under). A campervan permit is £250 (all occupiers must also have a valid Camping ticket).

All Special Needs customers should call Ticket Zone on 08705 321 321 to purchase tickets.

The festival has a large main stage in a natural amphitheatre that showcases well known rock and indie names, a legendary act or two, and rising stars, in a relaxed festival atmosphere.

Expected to make a return in 2009 is the 5,000 capacity circus style Big Top. This plays host to a special night on the Thursday on offer to campers and Festival First Members only, and then acts as a second stage once the festival begins.

Away from the Main Stage, the Platform One Bandstand offers unsigned acts and local bands, around 50 acts in all.

The arena is open from 2pm until midnight on the Friday, 11am until midnight on the Saturday, and 11am until 11pm on the Sunday. No bottles, cans, chairs, etc, may be taken into the arena. The Campsites are open from noon on Thursday until noon on Monday. Strawberry Fields opens on Thursday at 6pm until midnight for campers and Festival First Members.
