Lewis Capaldi will make his long awaited Isle of Wight Festival appearance later tonight (Friday), when he headlines Main Stage.

After months out the public eye, the Scottish singer songwriter will take to the Seaclose Park stage at about 10.30pm.

Meanwhile, headlining the Big Top late into the night, Craig David presents TS5, from 11.45pm.
