The Isle of Wight has an excellent live music scene, with music popping up in venues across the Island.
From traditional theatres to tiny churches, music happens in some great locations Island-wide.
The Island has made a name for itself as a great place for live music which arguably started with the world-famous Isle of Wight Festival back in 1970.
The festival, which formerly took place at Afton Down on the west side of the Island, is now hosted at the heart of the Island in Newport’s Seaclose Park where it is regularly attended by over 50,000 people.
Ventnor Fringe Festival in August hosts a range of gigs in quirky venues around the town of Ventnor, from old converted post offices to tiny churches.
Some gigs even happen in festival lovers’ back gardens!
Visit a traditional pub and warm up by the log fire whilst listening to the sounds of a local acoustic musician.
