The highly successful Girls’ Night Out returns to the Big Top at this year’s sold out Isle of Wight Festival, with a line up not to be missed! Joining headliner Joan Jett & The Blackhearts at one of the biggest weekends of the summer will be a host of pop’s finest females. The iconic Festival will see performances from Alexandra Burke, Eliza Doolittle, Imelda May, Diana Vickers, Parade and Laura Steel.

Alexandra Burke released one of the hottest pop debuts of the last decade. Now her feisty and empowering voice comes to the Isle of Wight Festival, as it celebrates its tenth birthday in the beautiful setting of Seaclose park. After the success of singles including ‘Skinny Genes’ and ‘Rollerblades’, Eliza Doolittle is yet another starlet to grace the Big Top on Friday 10th June.

Imelda May has not only caught peoples attention musically, her striking style is unmistakably cool and quirky, a perfect match for one of the most fashionable Festivals going. Joining her will be Diana Vickers, who has shot to fame as a star of song, screen and stage. Her unique voice shone through on her bold yet fragile single ‘Once’, and is another great addition to the Festival.

One of the most hotly tipped names for 2011 is girl group Parade, bringing much needed excitement and glamour to the Big Top and are definitely ones to watch! Setting the bar for Friday will be Laura Steel, a vibrant, animated and electric-coloured performer; she is set to unleash her distinctive sound at the Isle of Wight Festival.

The Isle of Wight Festival takes place 10th – 12th June
Seaclose Park, Newport, Isle of Wight
