Kicking off the festivities, meanwhile, will be England football legend, Peter Crouch, who is due to record his podcast live on stage, alongside co-host, Capital's Chris Stark.
Expect both a warm up and a reaction to the England vs Denmark EUROS game.
The highly anticipated football match itself will kick off at 5pm and will be shown inside and outside the Big Top, as well as in the Field of Dreams area, so gates will open earlier than normal, at 10am, to allow for Peter's preview chat.

The Rick Parfitt Jnr Band, fronted by the son of the late legendary Status Quo musician of the same name, were fan-favourites at last year’s Isle of Wight Festival.

At 8.50pm, Norwegian pop star, Dagny, will take to the stage before Scouting For Girls, whose hits include She’s So Lovely and Elvis Ain’t Dead, from 10pm.
Main Stage doesn’t open until tomorrow (Friday), but there is plenty of fun to be had today at Cirque de la Quirk, the Hipshaker Lounge, the much-loved Island home-from home, Kashmir Cafe, Electro Love, Intoxicated Tea Rooms and the This Feeling stage.
