Stereophonics Perform Their Headline Show on Isle of Wight

Welsh band Stereophonics returned to The Isle of Wight Festival 2025, captivating a massive crowd with a headline performance packed with fan favorites. Their set, featuring anthems like ‘Dakota,’ ‘Have A Nice Day,’ and ‘Maybe Tomorrow,’ solidified their status as one of the UK’s premier live acts, nearly a decade after their last appearance at the iconic festival.

The Main Stage was buzzing with energy throughout the day, kicking off under glorious sunshine with 5 Degrees North. A truly historic moment saw Emmanuel Kelly become the festival’s first differently-abled musician to perform on the Main Stage. Pop sensation Mae Muller previewed a brand-new single, ‘Hello Kitty,’ performing it live for the very first first time.

The afternoon continued with high-energy sets from The Saw Doctors and indie darlings Razorlight, who got the crowd singing along to ‘America’ and ‘Golden Touch.’ Nostalgia hit hard as Busted unleashed hits like ‘Year 3000’ and ‘Air Hostess,’ followed by a masterful performance from acclaimed songwriter Paul Heaton. The Main Stage crescendoed with The Script, whose frontman Danny O’Donoghue famously ventured into the crowd during a passionate delivery of ‘Hall Of Fame’ and ‘Breakeven’.

Over in the Big Top, the day began with The Bracknall and The Clause, leading into the indie-folk sounds of Matilda Mann. TikTok and podcast host Arthur Hill brought his signature feel-good vibe, while Pale Waves delivered a standout performance. Mercury Prize winners English Teacher and post-punk outfit Yard Act kept the momentum soaring, before Britpop legends Supergrass closed the Big Top with a festival masterclass.

Today marks the final day of the festival, with Justin Timberlake set to headline the Main Stage. Festival-goers can also look forward to performances from Jess Glynne, Olly Murs, James, Remember Monday, Texas, and many more, rounding off an unforgettable weekend for over 55,000 attendees.

Sammy Hagar has always had a reputation for surrounding himself with powerhouse players, but his upcoming live album, Sammy Hagar & The Best Of All Worlds Band – The Residency (out October 10, 2025 via Big Machine Rock), brings a distinctly Australian twist.

For Australian fans, the inclusion of Thistlethwayte in Hagar’s latest chapter is a striking reminder of how far the Sydney-born musician’s career has travelled.
