McDonald’s will be hitting the road again this Summer to bring free fries to festival revellers up and down the country, including at the Isle of Wight Festival! For the first time, over 2,000 portions of fries will be handed out every day when the festival returns to Seaclose Park in Newport between 20th and 23rd June. You’ll find McDonald’s in both the main arena and within the VIP areas, celebrating its guests as Very Important Potatoes. It’s all part of the fast-food giant’s 50th year anniversary in the UK and Ireland. To help level up your festival fashion and get you noticed on those main stage big screens, McDonald’s has also created a never seen before range of free iconic festival merch, including McDonald’s bucket hats, super-cool sunglasses, and bum bags. Keep an eye out for the iconic McDonald’s Fries van! McDonald’s will also be visiting Parklife in Manchester, Wireless in London, Flackstock in Reading and Leeds Festival in Leeds.
