The Isle of Wight Festival in 1970 was Jimi Hendrix’s last major performance. Three weeks later, he was dead. Not only was it Hendrix’s last concert, but also the end of an era. In 2020, we celebrate its 50th anniversary with a visual concert where the Isle of Wight Festival is a backdrop for a story of the 1960s.

In 1970, festival organizers expected around 150,000 visitors. According to The Guinness Book of World Records however, over 600,000 people attended, forcing the organizers to declare it a free festival.

Jimi Hendrix was the most prominent star of the event, but a long list of others dazzled the audience with their performances, including The Doors, Chicago, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Miles Davis and Joan Baez. “1970 – The Final Concert” includes them all, and many other great artists of the era.
