It was great seeing Ventnor’s Winter Gardens so vibrant on Tuesday night for the sold-out Ash gig.
Packed full of people, there was a real buzz about the place. Thinking back on it, it’s the first time for a long time that we’ve been down there to a capacity crowd.
The support band, Panama Kings hit the stage giving it their all – as if they were playing a huge stadium venue. Loads of energy.
The opening number by Ash was an amazing explosion of energy. Quite a way to open your show. Clearly playing to an appreciative audience, Ash did a great job of pleasing the crowd.
Wide variety of people
It was really interesting to note that most of the audience on the night weren’t from Ventnor, so people from all over the Island and beyond made their way down to the Winter Gardens … on a Tuesday … with a gale blowing.
Just goes to show that with the right show how successful the Winter Gardens can be. Long may it last.
Here’s a few shots that we grabbed, only on a mobile, so the quality isn’t fab, but gives you an idea of how busy it was.
