Springsteen has played both IOW and Glastonbury in the past so can't rule it out. I would say Springsteen doesn't fit with IOW recent history of headliners though over last few years so do agree Glasto more likely. Be very happy if indeed is Green Day, but I did also notice that Take That have a Sunday gap and after last year with Robbie think they could be possible too! 🙄

Springsteen is free on IOW weekend?

Posted on February 01, 2022 Unfortunately, Lionel Richie will no longer be playing at cinch presents the Isle of Wight Festival 2022. Watch this space for more info soon. We can't wait to see you all this summer! Please see below: Lionel Richie has confirmed that he will be cancelling his 2022 ‘Hello’ summer tour dates. “As Covid and its variants continue to impact the world, I have decided to hold off on my European tour this summer. The most important thing to me is the health of my fans, band and crew. I hope you all understand and I hope to see you very soon when we can all gather safely.”

Adele is out and about around Mad Cool - missing Thursday headliner??

Don't disagree - also think it is unlikely they'd go from Warsaw to Madrid and back given the carbon neutral pledge they've made. Definite gap around Madcool dates still, but think it will be somebody else in the end.

Looks like Coldplay have gaps in their 2022 tour around Madcool... https://www.coldplay.com/tour/

Agreed - stronger line-up than this year. Muse are out and about in Europe - headlining Madcool in Madrid for example. Wouldn't be a surprise to see them at BST or their own dates I thinl.

Got to be time for a new thread on next year... This year was good - would like bigger headliners if they're available though...

Great weekend and mostly spot on but they need to sort the Big Top for next year as the access wasn't working at all. People were congregating on the left, blocking entrances and there was loads of space on the far side of the tent. Security needed to be moving people over to the far side to allow more in. Was potentially dangerous at points too esp Scouting for Girls on Thursday. Similar for Kaisers and Example.
