About Strings

Venue Type: Bar & Venue

A 300 capacity live music and performing arts venue situated at the heart of the Isle of Wight, founded and run by musicians for music lovers.

We take pride in hosting a wide variety of high-profile acts from legendary artists of yesteryear to current trending and touring bands from across the world. We are also passionate supporters of local and emerging talent (if this is you, get in touch), and are 'the' place to discover exciting new music from the Island and beyond.

Boasting a top soundsystem, an ideal layout for live entertainment, 2 excellent bars featuring an impressive menu from ales to cocktails, beautiful modern decor and a programme packed full of quality entertainment, we really are the place to be for any discerning music fan. We are also home to some of the best club and comedy nights; there is something for everyone here, and all are welcome!
​
Getting here is easy, with the Island's central bus station literally on our doorstep with links to all vehicle and passenger ferries, and parking available within short walks from the venue. Throughout the day we are the perfect hangout for any muso, coffee or cocktail lover who likes their beverage served alongside great music and a relaxed atmosphere.
