Wightlink will be offering a service for those who are travelling on foot from the city, with the catamaran operating from Portsmouth Harbour to Ryde.

There will be a bus service operating from Ryde to take you straight to the Newport festival.

The Isle of Wight Festival would not advise taking the Portsmouth to Fishbourne ferry if you are travelling without a vehicle, as there is no transport at the Fishbourne terminal to take you to the Festival.

You can also travel by ferry with your car.

All you need to do is book your travel, board the ferry in your car, drive off at the other side and follow the directional signage to the festival.

Drivers will be able to park at the festival site.

The ferry timetable and prices can be found here.
