  • Robin Hill Adventure Park Downend Road Newport PO30 (map)

Multi-platinum British pop band Scouting for Girls will bring their infectious, feel-good hits to Robin Hill on Sunday 16 August, for a special open-air performance in the woodlands, set to be one of the highlights of the summer.

Known for chart-topping singles including “She’s So Lovely,” “Elvis Ain’t Dead,” and “Heartbeat,” Scouting for Girls have built a reputation for energetic, crowd-pleasing live shows that get audiences singing along from start to finish.

“We are delighted to be partnering with Strings again to bring an unforgettable live music experience to the woodlands at Robin Hill” says Lee Priddle, co-owner and CEO of Robin Hill Adventure Park. “Their vision aligns perfectly with our ambition to create unique, atmospheric events on the Island, and Scouting for Girls is the perfect Sunday headliner to finish what promises to be an incredible weekend”

Opening up is have local artist RUBY , the 'lanky redhead' who writes music direct from your diary pages. Her song 'Kasey' was The BBC Introducing Solent ‘Track of the Week’ in March and she also featured on our recent live broadcast with BBC 6 Music !

We then see the reuniting of old local favourites Goodbye Stereo! Their blend of infectious harmonies and hooks in all the right places won the indie/pop band admirers far beyond the Island's shores . . .

On to The Covasettes - an Indie Rock quartet formed in the heart of Manchester’s student town, Fallowfield. Led by front-man Chris Buxton's effortlessly infectious lyrics, guitarist Matt Hewlett's anthemic Indie-Pop guitar hooks and glued together by bassist Jamie McIntyre and drummer Matt Buckley's insistently punchy grooves that you can't help but dance to, The Covasettes are an act that you just can't miss in 2026!

And finally, our main support . . . The Lilacs! The high energy indie pop band from Wigan, who, in just 4 years together, have already started to make a name for themselves on the scene with appearances at major festivals and of course . . . our HQ at Strings Bar & Venue!
