Free live music in the courtyard at the Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary is an afternoon that requires very little justification. Local musicians and choirs perform in the sanctuary's outdoor space, free entry, free parking, and the donkeys are there throughout. The sanctuary near Wroxall is one of the island's most visited family destinations, and the community music format gives it an occasion that works for residents rather than tourists.
Community music events at the sanctuary tend to bring local choral groups, folk duos, and the kind of acoustic performers who are right for an open outdoor space with a broad age range in the audience. The courtyard is enclosed enough to hold a performance and open enough that children can move around without the music being interrupted. The sanctuary grounds give the afternoon a calm that indoor venues cannot provide on a spring day.
