Meridian Isle of Wight Festival

Police are searching for a man suspected of indecently assaulting a woman at the Isle of Wight Festival.

A woman in her 40s was standing alone in the Cabaret Club waiting for friends between 6.30pm and 7pm on Sunday 15th June.

She was approached from behind by a man who assaulted her physically and indecently for about five to ten minutes before walking away.

The suspect has been described as white, in his early 40s, 6ft, medium build with short spiky brown hair with sideburns.

Thousands of people are arriving on the Isle of Wight today for the start of the annual music festival. The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Calvin Harris and Kings of Leon are just some of the acts performing there.

Music fans at the Isle of Wight Festival are looking forward to tonight's performance by the American band The Killers. Friday night's headliners were The Stone Roses. Our reporter Divya Kohli spoke to some of the campers as she soaked up the atmosphere.

They were massive in the eighties, with a quadruple platinum debut album, and success here, as well as all over the world.

Yes, T'Pau - who will be playing at the Isle of Wight Festival in a few days time, are on tour for their 25th anniversary.

Our reporter Divya Kohli caught up with lead singer Carol Decker just before the band were about to go on stage in Hampshire.

Organisers say they're well prepared for this year's Isle of Wight Festival. Last summer saw the some of the worst rainfall - creating a quagmire. So what steps have been taken to prevent a similar situation. Our reporter Divya Kohli put that question to festival organiser John Giddings.

Stuart Love, Isle of Wight Council's strategic director for the economy and environment, said: “We hope that there will be no repeat of last year’s terrible weather, but if the worst does happen we are ready to put our alternative traffic plans into place.

"The arrangements we have give us the flexibility to keep traffic moving and to get large numbers of vehicles off the road network in a wide variety of scenarios.

“We would like to ask residents to help us by avoiding the designated festival traffic routes on the Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Monday of the event when traffic volumes are at their highest."

Isle of Wight Council will be keeping people up to date with festival traffic and travel information via social media.

People can follow @IsleofWightFest on Twitter or press ‘like’ on their Facebook page.

The Isle of Wight Council has detailed revealed its plans to many traffic coming to the festival.

The main route for festival traffic from the Red Funnel terminal at East Cowes will be up York Avenue and along Whippingham Road where it will turn right into the Red Festival Car Park.

If there are any overly long hold ups on the Whippingham Road plans have been developed to turn festival traffic left on to Alverstone Road.

Here it can be ‘stacked’ and released into the network when the roads to the festival site are less busy.

Vehicles travelling from the Wightlink terminal at Fishbourne will be directed right on to Kite Hill, through Wootton, up Lushington Hill and right at the Racecourse roundabout and the left into the White Festival Car Park.

Organisers of the Isle of Wight music festival say they are prepared for next week's event. Here John Giddings, festival organiser, tells reporter Divya Kohli how investment will help to stop a repeat of last year's mud bath.
