This week's Isle of Wight County Press is out tomorrow (Friday, August 21) and it features our eight page A Level supplement, a chance to win tickets to a theatre show at Robin Hill and coverage of the Garlic Festival.

Students across the Island received the news of their A Level results on Thursday, August 13, and we have a special supplement of the students we spoke to moments after opening their results envelopes.

Readers have the chance to win tickets to Come From Away at Robin Hill with every newspaper, and we have coverage of the Island's smelliest event, the annual Garlic Festival.

The County Press features three pages of letter and opinion, eight pages of puzzles, our regular Trader in the Spotlight feature and, of course, all the latest news.

Pick up the paper in shops from tomorrow!
