Two Door Cinema Club
Northern Irish indie legends Two Door Cinema Club return to the festival following a massive year of global touring. Known for their infectious guitar hooks and dance-floor fillers like ‘What You Know’ and ‘I Can Talk’, the band remains one of the most consistent and beloved live acts in the UK.

Joining them are fellow countrymen Ash, celebrating over 30 years of anthemic rock hits including ‘Girl From Mars’ and ‘Shining Light’.

Joel Corry
Bringing the party to the Island is multi-BRIT Award nominated DJ and producer Joel Corry. With a string of huge hits including ‘Head & Heart’ and ‘OUT OUT’, Joel is set to deliver one of the biggest dance sets of the weekend. Also joining the party is the world’s first time-travelling dance party, Hot Dub Time Machine, who will take festival-goers on a chronological journey through the greatest hits of all time.

Maximo Park and Good Neighbours
High-octane indie icons Maximo Park also join the bill. The band are currently in the midst of celebrating the 20th anniversary of their seminal debut album A Certain Trigger.

The festival also welcomes the meteoric rise of Good Neighbours. The duo, who became global sensations with their multi-platinum debut single ‘Home’, will bring their “indie-euphoric” sound to the stage.

Alessi Rose and Perrie
Adding to the wave of fresh British talent, rising star Alessi Rose has been announced as well as Doncaster-born singer-songwriter Freddie Halkon.

Former Little Mix star Perrie makes her highly anticipated solo Isle of Wight Festival debut. Since launching her solo career, Perrie has captivated fans with her powerhouse vocals and hit singles ‘Forget About Us’ and ‘Tears’, proving her status as one of the UK’s premier pop vocalists.

Rising indie stars
The IW 2026 lineup also welcomes rising indie stars The Ks, who have been selling out venues across the country and hit number 1 with last year’s album, Pretty On The Internet, and the ethereal sounds of Scottish post-punk icons The Twilight Sad.

Also included in today’s announcement are some of the most exciting new voices in music: the disco-infused pop of the BRITS’ Critics’ Choice Award shortlisted Rose Gray, LA-based duo Voila.

Elvis-fronted Nirvana tribute
