Our motto is not just a collection of words, it was formed by all that the band does.
Wight Diamonds is a community band formed in 2000. We operate as both a concert band and as a marching band with members from various backgrounds, ages and abilities playing in one or both capacities.
Each year we participate in a variety of events on the Island and the Mainland including carnivals, fetes, bandstands, concerts and private events.
On this website you will be able to find out more about us, where we are appearing and even how to get involved.
If you play a musical instrument or would like to learn to play a musical instrument in a fun environment,
why not come along to one of our practice nights and see what we are about?
Practice nights are held on Tuesdays (19:15 - 21:00) at Cowes Methodist Church, Birmingham Rd, Cowes.
You can hear us play at Shanklin Main Carnival on Wednesday the 7th of August. The procession sets off from Popham Road, Shanklin at 7pm and heads up through Shanklin Old Village, down to the train station and finishes at the car park on Chine Avenue. We look forward to seeing you there and hope that you enjoy the carnival atmosphere!
