Headlining the Main Stage on Saturday, June 14, this will be their only show of 2014 in Britain. What’s more, it’s the first UK festival appearance from the critically acclaimed quartet since 2007.
Red Hot Chili Peppers said: “To headline the Isle of Wight Festival is a once in a lifetime opportunity, following in the footsteps of Jimi Hendrix and The Doors. When we were offered the slot, we jumped at the chance.it will be our only show in the UK/Ireland this year so we intend to make it really special.”
Having released ten studio albums, Red Hot Chili Peppers have won over a generation of music fans from coast to coast. Since forming in 1983, their definitive sound has propelled the LA four-piece to become one of the most diverse and successful bands performing today. Now, they’re ready to take the Isle of Wight Festival by storm on Saturday, June 14.
Red Hot Chili Peppers will be joining an already big line up, which features an English festival exclusive from Friday Main Stage headliners Biffy Clyro, plus superstar Calvin Harris who closes the night and a special guest set from electronic outfit Rudimental. With more performances from Passenger, The 1975 and The Waterboys, 2014 is shaping up to be one of the biggest yet. The festival is set for Seaclose Park from June 12 to 15.
