It was originally a counterculture event held from 1968 to 1970 . </P> <P> The 1970 event was by far the largest and most famous of these early festivals and the unexpectedly high attendance levels led, in 1971, to Parliament adding a section to the "Isle of Wight County Council Act 1971", preventing overnight open - air gatherings of more than 5,000 people on the island without a special licence from the council . </P>
