An incredible opportunity to play the Isle of Wight Festival.

Wight Noize gives young and emerging artists and bands the chance to showcase their talent to an independent panel of music industry specialists, with the ultimate prize – opening the Isle of Wight Festival main stage alongside international pop and rock royalty.

This career-defining moment puts local talent on an international renowned stage, sharing the bill with some of the biggest names in music.

But the opportunities don’t stop there. Artists and bands – including local musicians and Platform One students – are also invited to perform on the dedicated Platform One Stage at the festival. This vibrant stage runs throughout the weekend, offering an incredible platform for original music, fresh talent, and the next generation of festival headliners.

For our students, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience – the buzz of a major festival, invaluable industry connections, and the chance to perform to a real festival audience. For local acts, it’s a moment to shine on one of the UK’s most celebrated music stages, right here on the Isle of Wight.
