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.
On Wednesday the 21st of August, you can hear (and watch!) us play at Newport Illuminated Carnival. The parade moves off from the Matalan Car Park in Newport at 9pm and as it’s a late start every float, walking entry and band will be decked out in a huge range of multi-coloured lights! The procession looks truly magical as it works its way around Newport and we hope you can be there to witness and enjoy it!
