A second wave of artists have been added to the Isle Of Wight 2025 line-up, with new names including Supergrass, Busted and more. Find out more below.

The annual event is due to take place from June 19 to 22 at Seaclose Park, and back in September it was confirmed that Justin Timberlake, Sting and Stereophonics would be joining as headliners.

Other artists included in the initial announcement were Faithless, ExampleThe Script, Clean Bandit, James, Paul Heaton, Olly Murs, The Lottery Winners, The Lathums, Alison Moyet and Dean Lewis.

Sting is set to kick off festivities on Friday night (20) as part of his ‘STING 3.0’ world tour, with Stereophonics topping the bill on Saturday (21), before Timberlake closes the festival on Sunday night (22).

Now, even more artists have been added to the bill, including Jess Glynne, who is set to perform her numerous chart-toppers including ‘Rather Be’ and ‘My Love’ at the site. “It’s great to welcome Jess back to the Island and to see her perform all of those hits we know and love,” said Festival promoter, John Giddings. “We will give her a real Isle of Wight welcome and I know it will be one of the highlights of the Weekend – we can’t wait to have you, Jess!!”

Glynne last played at Isle Of Wight fest back in 2021, when she made her comeback after reportedly getting a lifetime ban. Her being barred from the live music event came after she cancelled her slot at the 2019 event at the last minute, saying she was feeling “incredibly weak and full of anxiety” moments before heading on stage.

Also being added to the line-up are iconic British indie band Supergrass, who recently announced their return with a series of 30th anniversary UK tour dates, which will see them play their debut album ‘I Should Coco’ in full.

Elsewhere, Irish pop-rock band The Corrs join the bill, as do Scottish singer/songwriter Amy MacDonald, BRIT and MOBO Award winner Ella Eye, and indie bands Lightning Seeds and The Pigeon Detectives.

Busted have also been announced, and will be heading to Isle Of Wight amid news of their upcoming joint tour with McFly.

The remainder of the line-up now includes The Saw Doctors, Björn Again, Crystal Tides and Smiths cover band The Smyths. You can buy weekend tickets here.

This year’s festival saw performances from The Prodigy, Pet Shop Boys, Green Day and more. Also among this year’s highlights was Suede’s preview of a new song called ‘Antidepressants’.
