British Airways is ready to rock the Isle of Wight Festival this year with a secret party for music lovers.
The airline is giving festival goers a glimpse into the hidden world of British Airways by throwing an exclusive 2-night-only, backstage party inspired by the destinations it flies to from Gatwick.
Festival goers will be able to relax with a complimentary massage in a Caribbean themed zone, chill-out in a Moroccan Bedouin tent, relax on a Costa Rican inspired beach and for those who can solve a cryptic clue, sip a Manhattan cocktail at a New York pop-up bar.
KISS FM’s Dixon Brothers will head up a bill of talent to keep the party going until the early hours, while revellers will have the chance to win a pair of tickets to each of the airline’s new long-haul routes from Gatwick; San Jose in Costa Rica, Cape Town in South Africa, New York’s JFK and Lima in Peru.
Colm Lacy, British Airways’ head of commercial for Gatwick, said:
“We’re really excited to be back on the Isle of Wight again as it is always the festival that kicks off the summer season.
“With ‘BA’s Access All Areas’ we hope to give people a fun and exciting glimpse into what it’s like behind the scenes while being the first airline to bring a taste of our exotic destinations to the festival”.
British Airways crew will also be on hand with some festival survival essentials to help festival-goers freshen up throughout the weekend.
In 2014, British Airways hosted a stage (pictured above) for emerging talent at the Isle of Wight Festival, where nine brand-new acts from around the UK and Europe performed on the #BAMusic Stage.
