It's February and festival line-ups continue to flesh out with a steady stream of announcements steering us through the cold months. The Isle of Wight Festival is the latest to reveal additions to its line-up, with Florence and the Machine, La Roux, N-Dubz and the Hold Steady all confirmed.

Isle of Wight Festival, headlined by the Strokes on the final night, takes place on Jun. 11 to 13 with Florence and the Machine set to perform before Jay-Z on the Friday at the Main Stage. La Roux and N-Dubz will play in the Big Top Tent the following day prior to headliner Orbital. The Hold Steady play the Main Stage on Saturday.

Others on the bill include Blondie, Crowded House, Biffy Clyro, Doves, Friendly Fires, Vampire Weekend, Pink, James and the Saturdays.

Tickets for the festival are on sale now, with an adult camping pass priced at £150. That includes, by the way, campsite entertainment for the Thursday night before the festival starts, which includes music from Squeeze.
