Bringing together music enthusiasts each year to celebrate the unique culture and ethos of independent music shops and the vinyl format, RSD is now a firm fixture on the calendar. The Ventnor Exchange is the only store that takes part on the Isle of Wight and as ever we can promise a packed day of live performances, talks, DJ’s and our the return of our Big RSD Quiz with loads of great prizes to be won!

We are also the only place on the Island where you can get hold of some of those very limited edition releases made available for the day.

People arrive early in the morning so to be in with a chance of getting what your after make sure you're an early bird!

This looks set to be quite a day! As well as revealing we'll be hiding Isle of Wight Festival tickets around the store and giving away free Fred Perry bags for the earliest customers, we've got a packed programme of live music and activities being announced in the run up.

We will have lots more RSD releases than previous years and of course 40+ craft beers stocked as well as Island Roasted coffees, selection of teas, wide range of soft drinks and cake of course for the party!

We have a full schedule of live music curated in collaboration with artists selected by Chalk-Pit Records, Atmos Music and King Stammers
