Isle Of Wight Festival: Fatboy Slim, Robbie Williams and Kings Of Leon announced as headline acts

The Isle Of Wight Festival has announced three huge headliners for 2027, with Fatboy Slim, Robbie Williams and Kings Of Leon set to take to the stage next summer.

The annual music festival, held at Seaclose Park in Newport, will take place between June 17-20, and it'll mark its 25th edition since its revival back in 2002.

And music fans have a lot to be excited about as the festival announced the first wave of its line-up on Friday, with the DJ, the former Take That star and the Use Somebody hitmakers leading the charge. 

Fatboy Slim will kick off the proceedings on Friday, followed by Robbie headlining the Saturday stage, while Kings Of Leon will draw the festival to a close on the Sunday. 

Meanwhile, a host of other acts have also been revealed, with the likes of Becky Hill, Myles Smith, Bastille, 5 Seconds Of Summer, Kaiser Chiefs, Rudimental and Cruz Beckham & The Breakers performing. 

While Courteeners, Inhaler, The Cardigans, Aaron Rowe, Jack Savoretti, Keo, The Lilacs, Logicaltramp, Rick Parfitt Jnr Band, Scouting For Girls and T’Pau complete the first wave of acts for the 2027 shows. 

Festival director Caroline Giddings said of the line-up: '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.'

She added: '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.'

General ticket sales start on Monday, October 26 at 8am GMT, alongside an exclusive PayPal presale which has already begun. Prices start from £330.

Reacting to the Isle of Wight Festival's line-up announcement on their official Instagram page, fans couldn't hide their excitement at the chance to watch their favourite acts play. 

They penned: 'Party time, excellent'; 'Loving the smaller acts this year'.

'So excited for this year's line up @isleofwightfest well done.'

'Well I’m Happy with Kings of Leon, Kaiser Chiefs, Inhaler, The Cardigans, and one of the best bands around at the moment KEO ( and looking forward to seeing Jack Savoretti), can’t stand Robbie Williams but glad he’ll make some happy .'

'Great line up iow looking forward to it can’t wait! Such an improvement on last year, You done good❤️.'

Robbie's festival news comes as the Daily Mail can reveal the pop superstar pocketed a staggering £23.6million in profits in 2025, almost three times what he made the previous year, thanks to his blockbuster global Britpop tour.

Accounts filed at Companies House show the former Take That star, 52, who is married to Ayda Field, enjoyed a huge surge in takings last year.

His live music company, You’re Not Famous LLP, reported a staggering £76.9million in turnover for 2025 – an increase of £64.8million on the £15million recorded in 2024.

Gross profit soared to £27.9million, up from £9million the year before.

Robbie himself was paid £23,686,646, while the accounts show a profit split of £27,882,003.

The company, which was incorporated in 2010, has now filed 17 sets of accounts at Companies House.

The eye-watering payday came after Robbie’s global stadium tour, which kicked off in Edinburgh in May 2025 and has gone on to rake in millions.

He also performed at the 2026 FIFA World Cup closing ceremony, where he went viral for accidentally dropping a mint from his mouth during a live broadcast.
