Without Car:

If you are using public transport to get to the Isle of Wight, you will want to get a train to "Portsmouth Harbour" (Different from Portsmouth and South-sea). From there, you can either use The Wightlink catamaran service which is connected to the station. Or take a short walk to the Hovercraft service (Faster but slightly more expensive).

Once on the island, You can either:

a) Use a taxi service to get to Bembridge where the service will be taking place

b) Get the Number 8 bus from the Land End of Ryde Pier (Stand A), which usually leaves at 40 minutes past the hour, and costs £2.
