The Wurzels play an evening concert at Robin Hill near Newport on Saturday 30 May 2026.

Presented by The Leverets

The Wurzels at Robin Hill is a May evening for people who want a singalong with no need to pretend they are cooler than the chorus. The Somerset Scrumpy and Western band brings the humour, country-folk bounce and familiar songs, including “Combine Harvester” and “I Am a Cider Drinker”, to the Downend venue near Newport.

Robin Hill gives the gig space to loosen up. It is close enough to Newport for a practical journey home, but open enough for an outdoor crowd that wants to sing rather than sit politely. The current venue page lists tickets from £27.80 plus booking fee. The event is organised by The Leverets in the structured event data, so the public copy avoids the older organiser and charity wording that appeared in a previous draft.

This is a music event for groups, parents with older children and anyone who grew up with the songs half in the background. Book before you build the weekend around it, sort the lift home and take a layer for the late finish. It should feel cheerful, slightly daft and very Isle of Wight in the best way: an outdoor night where everyone knows more words than they expected. That is the appeal.
