Roman Games at the Villa Wight Games Festival

Roman Games at the Villa – Part of the Wight Games Festival We’re delighted to be taking part in this year’s Wight Games Festival this July, a wonderful community ‘Olympic Games’ for the Isle of Wight. The festival celebrates participation, inclusivity, and fun, bringing together traditional sports alongside a wide range of activities so that everyone can get involved in a way that suits them. Even better, all monies raised will be shared between three Island charities. Here at the Museum, we’ll be hosting two lively afternoons of Roman Games, offering a chance to step back in time and experience a taste of ancient competition. Expect fun, friendly challenges with a slightly competitive edge, perfect for families, friends, and anyone looking to try something a little different this summer. Thursday 23rd July | 1:30 – 3:00pm Thursday 30th July | 1:30 – 3:00pm A small donation to the Wight Games Festival is requested to take part, helping support local charities. Feel free to come dressed in Roman-inspired costume if you’d like to fully embrace the spirit of the occasion! For more information, please contact: We look forward to welcoming you for an afternoon of games, laughter, and community spirit.

A Death Doula offers emotional, practical, and compassionate support to individuals and families at end‑of‑life. From key personal wishes and practical planning, this session offers a gentle space to learn more and ask the questions that truly matter. Come along to learn more, ask questions, and begin putting together the information that matters most. We look forward to seeing you there for more information email While you’re here, our Forum Café is open for lunch, tea, coffee, and homemade cakes, and parking is free.
