Thanks, ooxld. First time at IoW Festival and I've only been to two before; Glastonbury and Green Man, both last year. Looking at IoW pics it looks smaller than Green Man though I could well be wrong. Is everywhere rammed all the time or is it easy enough to get a beer?

No,  generally loads of space apart from in main arena. Bars in main arena have queues but other bars in other more minor stages easy to get served,  we spent most time away from main stage in random areas.  it's nothing like the size of Glastonbury.  camp site to main stage 20min  walk, and you're not pushing through people, unless you wanna get to stage front.

Sounds just what I need; fairly chilled out when you fancy it. Not overly bothered about any of the headliners so will happily just mooch about and stop where I fancy. Starting to look forward to it now; don't live very far away really (Bournemouth) but I've only ever been on the Island a couple of times.

We're travelling from Christchurch,  just down the road from you. On the Saturday (gold theme day)  if you see a man in robot leggings,  Upper torso sprayed gold, wearing a top hat come and say hi. Have a great time.

Also updated my Spotify playlist and if anyone's interested I made playlists for each stage. For the smaller stages there are artists that don't have songs on Spotify but I think its a good way to help discover new talent before the festival even begins.

Main playlist: 

Main Stage Playlist:

Big Top:

Hard Rock Stage:

This Feeling Stage:

Kashmir Cafe:

Electro Love Stage:

Platform 1 Stage:

 

Hope this is helpful for people! Just over 2 weeks to go! I can't wait :)

Any ideas what type of music is playing in this area, I don't know the artists. It's says Smirnoff House but is it House / dance?  

I think it's mainly dj's, a lot of them have 2 hour sets and like you I've not heard of any of them

Bah bloody long walk from car park to Pink Moon in seems.... Is that red car park the only car park?? 

Anyone know if there is a closer car park to Pink Moon? 

It's the only one shown on the app, the maps split into two parts: Arena and Campsites. No idea if there are anymore but the fact that it's coloured suggests there might be more, although they could be even further away

I've signed up for Liftshare which apparently will get me parking closer to gates.  I'm basically giving a friend a lift and so he signed up for it and we paired up via the Liftshare link giving me free voucher to show at parking entrance to get the closer parking. Easy.
