The Isle of Wight festival have announced more acts for next year's line up including The Script, Paloma Faith and Ellie Goulding.
The event will be on 13 to 16 June 2013 and has already confirmed headliners The Stone Roses and Bon Jovi.
"So excited to return to one of my favourite music festivals and hope the sun shines as beautifully as it did when I last played," Faith said.
Other acts include Jake Bugg, The Maccabees and Fun.
Happy Mondays, Bonnie Raitt, Imperial Teen, The Farm, Blondie and Republica are all also expected to appear.
In 2012, heavy rain turned the festival site at Seaclose Park, Newport, into a mud bath, which forced festival-goers to sleep in their cars as traffic became gridlocked.
Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Tom Petty, Noel Gallagher and Jessie J were among the big-name performers in June.
