Live entertainment and big stars return to the Island this summer at Robin Hill’s brand new event, The Woodland Sessions, which will be running between 15th – 17th July.
The Woodland Sessions is a series of intimate outdoor concerts, taking place in the park’s unique Woodland Amphitheatre. The event is billed as ‘exceptional talent in an exceptional setting’.
Kicking off the incredible line-up is Woodland Sessions Comedy. Hosted by Tom Allen and held on the evening of Thursday 15th July, the night stars top comedians Rich Hall, Seann Walsh and Maisie Adam.
Friday 16th July will see Woodland Sessions Chilled, featuring international star Katie Melua performing a stunning and exclusive acoustic set.
Finishing off the run on Saturday 17th July is Woodland Sessions Party with the UK’s biggest 90’s dance covers band and festival favourites, Rhythm Of The 90’s, getting the summer party started.
Gates open at 18:30 and all evenings will start with drinks at the beautiful Woodland Ponds. The main show will take place in the seated Amphitheatre, and conclude with after parties in Robin Hill’s illuminated woodland.
Park Manager James Crofts has said:
“We’ve all been starved of live entertainment in the last year so, as we embark on something more like normality, we wanted to treat the Island and our guests to something very special, combining the highest quality entertainment with our beautiful woodland environment”.
Co-promoter, Keith Penny, of new Island-based events company ….with a difference, said:
“Katie Melua has a stunning voice and is a hugely successful artist of international stature, so we’re delighted to have secured this exclusive acoustic set for our shows.
“Along with a line up of four of the very best in stand up, the ultimate 90’s party band, and the gorgeous setting, The Woodland Sessions are a perfect way to spend a summer’s evening – or several summer evenings! ”
Capacity is limited to under 1,000 per night and all shows will comply with the latest COVID-19 regulations. From 21st June this should mean there is no need for social distancing. However, should the roadmap change and this still be required, the evenings will go ahead with a socially distanced ‘picnic style’ concert in Robin Hill’s open-air valley.
Tickets are now available at www.robin-hill.com.
Crofty the clown should do his own show!
