As well as the line-up of music, the Isle of Wight Festival has confirmed the festival will also be chowing the football, with all the action from the World Cup screened live in the BT Sport Field of Dreams.

Festival goers Fans can catch every kick, card and corner during the Festival on their big screens. 

Festival organiser John Giddings told eFestivals, "Yes, we will be showing the football, there will be a BT Field Of Dreams. England's kick off is at 11 o'clock at night but there are also matches on earlier on and we'll screen them too. The Field Of Dreams doesn't have to be football all day long. It's the same idea as last time, but not exactly the same thing."
